putting drop bars on my Cannondale Quick 5
I have a Cannondale Quick 5 that I love when I am riding a combination of rough gravel and paved roads
in southern Vermont. The triple crank helps with steep gravel climbs and it is a very comfortable bike.
I would like to replace the flat bars with drop bars as I feel more comfortable riding on the hoods and sometimes
in the drops on my road bike. Having drops on my Cannondale seems like it would make it more like a "cyclocross" bike.
Would I need to do anything beyond buying new handle bars and brifters and installing them? Am I missing any other complications if I decide to do this? Will I be able to find brifters that are compatible with my drive train?
Thanks for any advice.
