Can I use these for a drop to upright conversion with a 2x8 derailleur?

I used them successfully for a drop to upright conversion for 3x8 derailleur set

Yes. The only difference will be is that the left shifter will have 3 settings instead of 2. Just line it up so that when you shift gears that it goes between 1 & 2.

I used these for a flat bar conversion on my Trek 1000 road bike and it works great. I have 3x8 with my setup but if you adjust the front shifter you shouldn't have a problem.

Yes you can. Also, you can use 2 2X8s, or 2 2X6s and 1 2X4. You may have to adjust the uprights so there is not too much overhang or causes pinching on your buttinsky. Just pre measure the widths of your boards and experiment from there. You may have to drill some extra holes for greater stability.

I want to say they have plastic ends so if you are talking bar end shifters you probably can. Diameter would be the only question.

I have mine on a Nashbar Crankset but this should work on your two piece application.

the 07005000 has a piece for the bottom end (the ground) so your 2x8's won't wear out so fast

First, I don't know. I have found calling Shimano Customer Service line to be very helpful when I had the same question. But in my experience as long as the number of speeds is the same, and the largest/smallest sprocket size is the same, you should be OK. Again, you should call Shimano to confirm. It is based on the derailleur, and in my case, I discovered from Shimano customer service that I was able to keep my same derailleur when I made my switch.

Standard I.S.O. size, used on the vast majority of newer bicycles with upright handlebars.They are 7/8 with a 1inch clamp, So no I dont think it will work sorry

Not enough information to tell you if this derailleur will work for you. Need an idea of the cable routing and if cabless pull from the top or bottom of the derailleur. Sorry I can't help you resolve this question. Nick Carper

This for a 2x8, you can see the instructions on Shimano: http://techdocs.shimano.com/media/techdocs/content/cycle/SI/2300/SI_6SF0A_001/SI-6SF0A-002-ENG_v1_m56577569830683910.pdf

Sup mark, you would slip them on the handle bars (they indicate which one goes on the right side and left side). The "double" rings you see on the shifters can be tightened down to a custom fit by using a screwdriver, you can put the shifting levers to the angle of your desire. Afterwards you would just wire the cables through you bike and to your derailleurs. if you have more questions, feel free to ask lol. hope this helps.

I put them on my 88 with no problems, well just de careful of the weight of the electric motor. Rear axel is not balanced.

Yes. They are for a metric bike that has 7/8" bars. However, they are not knureld on the mounting area.

Should be no problem. Use the provided adapters and they should be fine. Happy riding.

Yes. The mount on the derailer itself is 35.0mm. Shims are included for 28.6mm and 31.8mm frames.

Shimano 105 or Ultegra derailleurs also seem to be of good quality and should work fine with those shifters.

You can use a stock converter.but you will see better performance (take off) with a 2000 or 2400 stall. A 2400 is what I use with 373 gears.
