[RBW] Roadeo Build Options

2019-03-16 Thread Joe Bernard
Have you ever had to do any work on your Force levers? I'm not sure there's much more maintenance necessary than with DT; in my experience STI-type click shifters either work or they don't, so I'd just make sure I had newish ones before starting a tour. I think a Roadeo should be built as a li

When I had my Roadeo I had it with a modern Ulegra 11 speed group, a threaded headset and a modern set of wheels built by Rolf. The bike ride great and I never had one issue out of it. I can’t really fault the Ultegra for anything as it was a smooth shifting group that gave me a few years of tro

[RBW] Roadeo Build Question - SRAM Apex, anyone?
