IMO, YMMV
What are cable stops for?
What sort of shifters should I look into? Maybe some of those thumb friction shifters?
What about strap in pedals? I think I may have to go back to those, because I tend to pedal flat footed over the middle of the pedal rather than with the ball of my foot like I should be. Also, I think my seat is set too low.
would I be better off riding some sort of commuter bike if this is the sort of style I like?
