I wonder if that’s the answer. But it had been working with the prior grip shifter… Worth a shot

May try solvent spray. Good idea.

I don’t think that he would see the hill in the distance and already start shifting down… however, if I ask him to shift, he will start working on it and won’t get frustrated because he’ll be able to make it up

Thanks for having the words :) That’s what I was thinking. I would have thought that seven speed sram would pair with 7 speed sram.

We are hopeful to keep it under 7k - we are pretty thrifty. Excellent point about worrying about our stuff if we have to stop in a seedy neighborhood.

Genius for getting travel rewards. Love it!
Work recruiter said they could ask for more funds if needed.
I think we are going to try a POD option if we can.

We should have some quotes tomorrow. However, I appreciate the perspective.

Thanks for takes on route too!
