I'll just post the same thing I posted in the MTB Drop Bar thread...
I've been saying I'm going to do this for years. I've had the parts for about a year. Had most of it together for 6 months. Finally got a few bugs sort of worked out and taped the bars today.
1987 Schwinn High Sierra. Stock Deore components, stock front wheel with high flange Joytech hub and stock Suntour roller cam brakes. I think the cranks and the big chainring were replaced when I got hit 20 years ago. Suntour Barcons. Stem is the ubiquitous SR Custom, bars are SR Road Champion and the brake levers are drilled DiaCompe with Schwinn Approved turkey levers.
