Simple 10 speed, why pay more?

I wear out a set of sprockets about every 5,000 (3 chains cost) so I don't care if I have the lightest set. They seem to last as long as the more expensive Ultegra set but I'm trying to keep the cost down so I chose them for my next upgrade. There doesn't seem to be a difference in gear shifting, coasting or weight that matters. Yes, spinning weight is important to riders, but for the rest of us, durability and cost are more important.

Pros
  • Includes lock
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for seniors

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

Pros
  • Drilled gears help keep weight down

Excellent goods! for transmission components

I buy all my parts online and take them to my local bike shop for fitting. I get accrued work and that's it! Why pay double the price for parts when you can save money. Just check with your store if you can't do the job yourself and see if they have a problem with it. Go somewhere else if you have a problem. Make sure your chain is compatible with a 10-speed cassette. I bought a KMC X10.93 10 speed chain from BikeTiresDirect for less than $25 and it works just as well as any of the most…

Pros
  • Nickel plating increases durability
Cons
  • Doubt
