can i mix Altus 7 speed with Tourney 7 speed components. i have an entry level mountain bike that has altus 7 speed with revoshift but i want to convert it to drop bar with Tourney A070. i.e. Altus cassette, RD, chain then swap the shifter for Tourney ST-A070? does that work? thanks.
Some say pour 10ml water out of your bottle to save that last bit of the weight. Sorry, i go one step further, i tend to the rider off my bikes. :thumbup:
n+1...14 last time i checked, but i lost count :mrgreen:

acutally....found the answer im after. i think road and mtb both have the same cable pull for 7 speed. https://www.artscyclery.com/science-beh ... atibility/
