Review on Shimano 105 CS-5700 10-Speed Cassette by Jason Rawls

Revainrating 5 out of 5

It works, I work well

Shimano 105 10 speed cassette is just what I needed for my tough mountain bike and also for my elite indoor trainer. Its relatively narrow 10-tooth overall design lends itself well to training runs on flat or roller blades; which makes it easier to set the gear ratios. Combined with a 36T cog on a 1-speed drivetrain, selecting the right gearing for your desired cadence and power output is a click or two away depending on the terrain and/or training segment. Thanks to the super cute chain at the sweet spot of this cassette (which I use on most of my rides) it's literally silent. absolutely secret.

Pros
  • Drilled gears help keep weight down
Cons
  • Appearance
