Im a definate newbie when it comes to road bikes - so please go lightly on me guys! Ive been a Mtb'er since birth and am now wanting a road bike to do the Essex100 on this year....
Ive seen a frame i quite fancy - however i see that it has a downtube shifter mount and I think i would prefer to fit the brake/shifter combined units as seen on more modern bikes these days...
Is this at all possible or am I trying too hard to integrate old and new???
Please excuse my ignorance and thanks in advance!
