XT m739 STIs *SORTED*

[Tired Joseph]

Hi

After a set of xt m739 combined shifter and brake levers - not looking for NOS, but nothing too ratty looking. General wear and tear is fine, and must be fully functioning. Got a set now

Haven't fully decided on the rest of the build yet (link below), but will also be looking for a chainset, rear mech and cassette.

Definately XT from the range 737/738/739. I'm torn between 737 which would be the same year as the frame ('96) and 739 as this would be the same year as the v brakes, but I'm not after 100% year correctness (as evidenced by a nice m738 front mech I just purchased).

So, if anyone has any of these bits available give me a shout (subject to condition as already mentioned).

Joe

edit: I think the theme for this build may be "the bike/components I would have upgraded to in 1998 if I had the money, whilst using my 1996 frame" - catchy, but not sure the purists will be keen...

M739 rear mech and brake levers in my for sale thread

Thanks Azaro

Afraid I'll have to decline, the mech is a little more scratched than I'm after, and it's the combined shifter/brake pods I need. Or maybe just the shifters at a push as I already have m739 brake levers.

Thanks anyway

STIs sorted - still after a rear mech, cassette and maybe a chainset (anyone know if my current LX chainset would work with an 8 spd drivetrain?).

All done thanks.
