Hey guys - My step-daughter has decided she might like to start cycling, so I'd like to upgrade my old 2006 Trek 2100 ZR for her.
That old bike has treated me well over the years, but the drivetrain is a little long in the tooth: 3x - 10 spd. And it's starting to do some wonky things more often while shifting, even left her stranded on Sunday.
So now I have a double-sense of urgency, as she leaves for college next month, as well.
Plan would be to upgrade it to 2x - 11 spd. (I've already swapped the stock 11 spd rims over from my B12 as the stock Bont's started pulling apart). Doesn't need to be brand new, but definitely should be in great working order.
And gonna need the entire groupo: shifters, dr's, crank, bottom bracket... So what do you guys got? Would prefer mechanical Shimano, and 105 is probably more than enough, and ebay has a brand-new set for $600 and change. But I hate ebay, and I'd rather buy from you guys.
Whachu got??
Thanks in advance!
