Chris I admire your commitment to the single handlebar, I wish I could get myself to agree on one!
For shifters have you thought about thumbies? I did a pair of thumbies on my GAP trip w/ the purple-luki and liked it pretty well. I mounted them close to the stem. Granted I didn't shift a whole lot and the particular SIS thumbies I used are pretty unappealing but it is a configuration I'd consider again. It did minimize the shifter cable run if that matters to you. Picture below. When I reconstitute the Saluki I'm leaning towards albatross with 1x8 so a right hand paul thumbie mounted silver shifter in the conventional (close to the hand grip) location. <https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/-fNQeLeAcgSQ/VHVWN2cm4lI/AAAAAAAAF6o/R0zCW87_4oM/s1600/DSC_3466.jpg> -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
