New down tube shifters
#1
I just order my 9 speed down tube shifters last night and they are on there way this morning. I did not like the bar end shifters and I have always use down tube shifters on most of my bikes. This will be the first time I had to install them so not sure how this may take but it will get done by this spring. This should finish all of my up grades to my LHT that I wanted for it. When I am all done with it I will post pics of my LHT but it want be till spring. I have a lot of stuff to finish this spring hope with all the things that needs done around here I have time to ride lol. Three bicycle to work on can take a little time just hope I can get them all done and make them look good. Now I got to talk my wife in to letting me get a new air compressor. Ha ha we will see how that turns out.
My dad always told me a Sledge a matic can fix any thing.
