My new Clyde Ride
1 Attachment(s)
Loving my new bike. It is a Gt GTR4 got it on sale from Nashbar for $425 with free shipping. I did not like the Sora shifting. I actually preferred the downtube shifting on my old bike. I went to ebay and got some Rival levers and apex rdr. Sram for life now, so smooth, crisp and easy. Not to mention how comfortabe the hoods are. Yes, those are aero bars, also from nashbar, the cheap ascent version, much better than I expected. The whole set up is little heavy, but so am I

That I understand ... I don't like the downshifting either.
Mr. Sinister posted last week that Shimano is coming out with Sora levers that now have the shifters behind the levers like they should be :D |
That's a really sharp looking ride! Looks fast even standing still.

Bah, get SRAM, you'll wonder how you lived without it. One lever to shift, one to brake, and they operate independently, as they should.

Yup, and I want them. My old Sora shifters will then go on the old 70's bike I will be building later on this year.
