I was wondering if it was possible to switch from hybrid to road bike, thanks for your video, I’ll switch too in the spring

First genuine video. I too want to go for dropbars but then flat bars are good for my city commute.

thanks for giving me the idea to change flat into drop bar because I love road bike but they are very expensive and I love road bike because of their drop bar handles.

I'm making plans to convert a flat bar hybrid to drop bars, but I'm using dedicated long-pull brake levers and bar-end friction shifters. It's critical to use long-pull levers with V-brakes.

how about a video on your riding experience after your conversion?

I have always fitted brake levers to the bars before fitting to the bike. Using a flat surface like you have done provides the most accurate way of positioning them evenly. If the bar rock then the levers aren't positioned correct. Simples!

Good work!
I am 90% complete on doing the same to my Neon 4 but with Shimano 4720 [hydraulic] Tiagra as i found them on offer in Germany (the cost of levers, hoses and calipers even with taxes etc, they were cheaper than non hydraulic 4700 levers without calipers in the UK).

Thanks for this upload mate! It's definitely one of those things that is quite daunting when you're doing the research but seems very, very simple in retrospect after it's all sorted out. This video was a great help!

Hi Jace. Great video. Yes I have done a video and discovered I had switched the camera off instead of record. So I know how that one goes. Why in the dumps. HOP been changed to 20th July. I got to be there AT 7.30am!!! I don't know what 7.30am even looks like. But the good thing is it is finally getting done. YEAH!!!. My best to you all. Stay safe.

Cool conversion. Really liked it. You should've ridden it - on the video, that is - after making the changes :)

Who do you say "Didn't go well"? I thought that seemed to go alright; pretty good, even.

Great components! Drop bars are well on a light frame! Great conversion! I am working on a more vintage style gravel bike! Trek antelope with vintage drop down bars! Thinking about a brifter group set

I want to do something similar with a rigid Specialized bike I salvaged from my neighbour who left it out for the scrap metal man. The brakes are the major headache, insufficient clearance for short arm v brakes, seen a Spindatt vlog where he sets V brakes ultra close to the rim but I like your barrel adjuster hack. How do the brakes perform?
