and totally unwanted 53/39 crankset, matched with my 20/22 DOS ENO. The
range of gears would be more in the 49 to 73 inch range, and bigger
chainrings and cogs are known by the efficiency zealots to have less
friction and lower chain tension.
Plenty to play with, ev

If you do decide your shifters are hosed, I recommend you upcycle them into
key chains. Shift levers make great keychains.

A generic BMX-like freewheel would need to be compatible with a 3/32"

BMX freewheel would be $10 plus shipping.

That's dynamite. Frenchie tabs are super trick. The modern barrel ones
are probably more versatile and stronger, but the Frenchie tabs look so
