I've just picked up this Ridgeback 607 GX which is in pretty good shape.
A couple of questions:
Any idea of the year of manufacture - I've tried Bikepedia & MTB katalog de without success. It was specced with a profile quill stem, LX shifters & crank, STX RC front mech, XT rear mech and a beautiful ACOR CNC'd bar. Not sure whether any are all are original. I still have the parts and they're being cleaned up.
I'm thinking of using this as a road bike and have test fitted some 700c wheels which will fit with 5mm to spare. Any recommendations to solve the braking issue this creates? The fork & the seat stay cross member are drilled for mudguards and I'm wondering whther some u brakes would do the trick?
