Gern 🔄
ich hab ein 30+ Jahre altes Rennrad mit Shimano 105 (2x7 Rahmenschaltung)
würd das gern für nen Bekannten auf nen STI umrüsten. gibts dafür sinnvolle (günstige) STIs?
google sagt mir ich kann nen 2x8 oder 3x7 nehmen einschränken auf 2x7 (aber google sagt auch ich brauch nen Kettennieter als Zubehör, daher frag ich hier lieber die Profis :D )
Ich brauch mal Hilfe von den Radfahrerinnen hier:
Für meine langen Touren möcht ich mir Aerobars / Auflieger holen. Allerdings brauche ich welche mit möglichst schmalen Klemmen damit meine Lenkertasche noch mit an den Lenker passt.
Kann hier jemand was empfehlen?

Try them on at real world bike shop. Once you have ticked boxes of
-Comfort
-usability
-Can I leave the house wearing this model
-Safety rating.
-extra warm layer underneath
Then invest but not before. Once you know you will use it the cost is ok.
I would insist on minimum safety compliance but not spend overly to reach highest rating on Virginia Tech etc

Not for me so far. I only use train if I have had a drink at lunchtime . Car would be impossible for me with parking and traffic.
Rain makes it less fun but still better than crowded train with everyone steaming

Lots of excellent suggestions above. Especially Mylar blanket & sugary snack for emergencies. Cable to fit each and every gizmo
My two-pennorth
Don't take too much
Avoid new untested, take old reliable
I tend not to take bike parts cos so much can break but rarely does
Only take tools that fit your bike for things you know how to fix
Pack carefully and with emergency, quick use at stop etc. last-in first-out

When I started commuting I had knee and back pain,
To the extent I was getting worried that the ibuprofen gel would stop working.
Recommended in line to get Condor Cycle bike fit.
Bike fitter raised saddle (those longish legs), put a 2mm shim in left shoe, fixed cleat position, & recommended slightly shorter stem (for when I could source one).
Solved overnight. I now get fatigue after 4hours plus but no pain
