QUOTE(etigge @ Oct 9 2013, 09:04 AM) You mean shifter? As long as the number of gears are the same, you can change the shifters eg. 8 speed cassette for 8 speed shifters or 9 speed shifter for 9 speed cassette. But it would be better if you change them together if you are upgrading. Why are you changing shifters? I am on Link D8, I am thinking to change bullhorn/dropbar because of my length of my hand, I feel the need of the extra extension. Not based on assumption, but after try on Verge X30h. For record, I am 6'5"   As I can't afford to change everything at once, so one thing at a time. Then again, I can't change bar but not brake level and shifter. You get what I mean?  So, my wish-list are SRAM Red, Dura-Ace or Ultegra.      |

QUOTE(Halia @ Oct 9 2013, 05:56 PM) Would any sifu here care to spend some precious time educate For those new to fb like me in breaking down the bike basic frame. It is obvious that different models shares similar frame. Take the example of Tern, it has P & D series - P9, P71, P24h, D8, D7i C7 (copy straight from the website). They all seems to use the same type of frame (Link, 6061-AL, patented OCL Joint and Double Truss technology) but differ in fork. From here on, can the experts willing to perform some hair splitting works to established the base frame (regardless of the models due to components), and the one level higher and so on? I am keep bulking on this frame thing because in Mtb, we only look and buy the best possible frame and then choose the components accordingly. So, still can't shake this off me. Thanks By now you have already read bro @etigee reply, which explained thoroughly. In short, Tern Links share same frame design, so as Verge, Swoop, Eclipse, Castro, Joe and new Node, each series one frame design respectively. As per the naming convention, Deluxe, Premium, Superior, Extreme. So each series it sub-categorized to such grade, for instance D8 simply means Deluxe grade 8 speed, The Jack of All Trade, as quoted from Tern. Verge S11i = Superior 11 speed internal hub etc. These are personal finding... could be wrong. CheersThis post has been edited by andythology: Oct 10 2013, 10:59 AM |
