Hi, after searching the forums for info on Shoguns, I came to realize that you are the Shogun guru, so I'd like to ask a few questions about my 86 800. I bought it new and it came with 600 derailleurs, Dia-Compe side pulls, Araya 700c wheels. The frame is Tange 2 double butted chromoly. I've ridden this bike all these years and have enjoyed it enough to upgrade the shifters from the original downtube style to 105 indexed style, Ultegra rear derailleur and hub as well as a mavic Open Pro rear wheel (front is still original). At this point, I'd like to change the 52/42 175mm crankset to a 105 52/39 crankset b/c the cranks are still a little loose after tightening and I'd like to get a little lower gearing for hill climbing. My question is, having never ridden anything newer than this bike, is it worthwhile putting more money into it or would the modern technogy frame, components etc. I'd have if I got a new bike provide a more enjoyable cycling experience?
Thanks,
Rich
