The EF-51 is designed to work with 7 cogs on the back wheel, that should be fine. Assume you have a Shimano or compatible rear derailleur as well, will not work with SRAM.

I would take the rear to a LBS and make sure the freewheel/ hub will accept it first. you may end up needing a wheel.

Probably not cause you said you have a five spd rear and the shifter your referring to is for a seven spd rear. Check out the sunrace slm 10 friction shifters

The bar ends are open (plastic caps come installed but can removed) and the tube diameter is standard. I can slide in a bar-end brake lever (that's all I have around to test with), so I would assume that bar-end shifters would install just fine. The question at that point would be cable routing. The could come out the back end of the bars, but there is not an exit hole that would route them out the side or bottom of the bars in front of the head tube so that the shift cables could be routed along (or within) the downtube.

I'm using the barend shifters with my old 8 speed alivio rear and front derailleurs with 9 speed cassette, there won't be any issue if you are going to use 9-speed all the way, cassette, rear and front Derailleurs

Paul, I bought 2 sets and used these EF-51 on 2- 1994 Schwinn mountian bikes with cantilever brakes and they work great.

I have a Trek 7.3, and everything works well together. The piece for the bike wheel went on easily and doesn't cause any problems. The bar that attaches the trailer to the wheel piece fits perfectly, and the bar slides into the trailer without any issues. It will work for you.

I can't say for sure about your shifters, but I mounted some old 7spd Deore shifters on these bars with no problem. Also some mountain brake levers which were fairly standard, so you'll probably be able to mount your shifters fine. I measured the bar's diameter, and it looks close to 22.2 mm. Hope that helps!

The rear cassette or freewheel will have seven gears. Then you are ok. However it sounds like you have 8 gears in the rear so you will need one with one more shift line.

Hello. Yes you can change this to just about any tooth cog you want! It uses abendix style coaster brake style cog or gear. I have also used new ( made for these " bendix " skip tooth style on them for my old bikes

Yes, both levers and all cables and hardware needed. I was able to use this kit to upfit to a 1994 Specialized ALLEZ with down-tube shifters 7 Speed. Works great.

Waldemiro, When I ordered the Ergons they said the same thing. The add said GC5 but they sent GC3 which turned out to be the same. You need to make sure that you get the right length to match the type of shifters. They have shorter body for use with grip shifter and longer for lever shifters. These are in my opinion the most comfortable gripe that I have ever used for Mt. Biking.

If I understand you correctly, yes this shifter/ break combo will work for the 3 gears that are on the crank side of your bicycle. On a side note the quality for the price is out-freakin-standing!

It should adjust to fit BUT a lot depends upon your shifters, cables etc.... If you have thumb shifters I think it will work. I have seen a 7 speed Shimano click shifter work but of course it had to be adjusted to fit...I use new 6 speed twist shifters and cables when I work on a bike. For this job the time the old derailleurs will work most of the time.. It's not a big difference going from 5 to 6 speed but I don't think 7 is worth the trouble... I have stopped using this particular cassette and now use the 34 teeth low speed since our local area has some big hills......Good luck..

The shifter I purchased was model TX30-7R for 7-disk free wheels (see photo to left). My shifter has 7 "gears". I imagine Shimano sells a 6 position shifter, too. Was that the model you saw? Mike

Well, what can I say to help, make a few phone calls to bicycle shops in your area. But as long as it relates to a seven shifting options for you, I can't see any problems. My old 1994 ROSS Mt. Olympus 21 speed mountain bike, it work for me. I replaced both shifters, the original ones just tired out, yet my derailleurs are still going strong today. My opinion, they work better how the shifter buttons relate on the handle bars. Once I got them lined up & running they work great. How was that?

brake pads are pretty generic fit anymore, there is only a couple styles. I used these on 2 Treks 700x35 wheels on one, 26x2.0 on the other. They work on both bikes and probably will fit yours also.
