Question on upgrading Trek 7000 shifters
I have a 4-year old Trek 7000, which is basically the same as the current Verve 1. I'm satisfied with everything on it except the twist shifters. The Verve 3 uses the Shimano Altus EF51 shifters - can I just swap mine out for those (and grips as well of course), or do I need to change the front and rear derailleur as well? I've got the Shimano Tourney front and rear, and the Verve 3 has the Altus front and Acera M360 rear. However, the Trek FX 7.1 has the Tourney up front and is using the EF51 shifters, so I'm guessing they're compatible?
Thanks!
Thanks!
