This Focus cross bike came into the workshop running 10-speed drop bars, but the owner needed a simple, reliable flat-bar setup on a budget. In this pro mechanic's guide, I show you the right way to execute a low-cost conversion where every pound counts.
The key to hitting the budget was a strategic mechanical hack: dropping the rear drivetrain from 10-speed down to 9-speed to save money on components without sacrificing usability. The final low price included everything: bars, tyres, rear mech, cassette, chain, brake levers, shifters, grips, and tubes!
Watch the full guide to see the 9-speed hack in action and a complete cost breakdown!
