1980s MIELE MYB Dropbar Conversion
I bought this MIELE MTB frame, deraillers, brake calipers and seatpost quick release for $10.00 and converted it to a dropbar tourer.
Drivetrain is Old School Shimano DEORE. I have another DEORE front derailler that has the Deer Head on it that I'm going to use instead of the DEORE one that's on there now. The bar-end shifters are ULTEGRA 9-speed and the brake levers are TIAGRA. There are 9 images of the bikehere. https://flic.kr/s/aHsknCr94H Cheers |

Do you not already have bikes which you prefer to ride? |

Question: Your front derailer appears to be a two speed model. Does it shift the triple chain ring with no problems? -- cheers, John B. |

That's a deep inner cage DEORE TOURING TRIPLE front derailler John. As such it shifts the three rrings fine. The crankset and deraillers are designed to be compatible with each other. Cheers |

Do you not already have bikes which you prefer to ride? I have other MTB bikes converted to dropbar tourers but I really like MIELE and will now use this one instead of the other MTB to dropbar conversion bicycles i have. i think in the spring I'll sell or give away a couple of them.

Cheers It must be the pictures then - the one my browser shows, next to the one of the rear derailer, and a larger one below it showing mainly the chain ring. The outer lip of the front derailer appears to be much higher then the large chain ring and the inner lip seems as high as a normal two ring derailer. In fact the photo seems to show the inner lip almost the height of the large chain ring. Thus my question. -- cheers, John B. |

If it works and it's in good condition then I don't mind using it. Boipace is really nice on a loaded bike or for going up hills. It really smoothes things out and you can still spin with Biopace. It's nice to be able to resurrect these old components and give them new life. Cheers |
