Paceline,
I'd like to get your advice on potentially converting my soon to be ex bike (2010 Specialized Allez) to a setup more conducive for my wife.
It currently has a Shimano 105 (5600 series) gruppo installed. She would much prefer to have a flat bar with hybrid/mtb stlye brake levers and shifters.
If we go through with this project, I will need:
1)shorter stem
2)flat bar
3)New Shifters/Levers
I am assuming I can keep all the other drivetrain parts intact. My question for the forum is which Shimano 10sp MTB/Hybrid style shifters/levers would you recommend that would work with 10s 105 derailleurs? I will be looking to do this as economically as possible. Thanks in advance.
