Shimano Tiagra 4700 10 Speed Cassette Cycling Equipment

Product Information

It would have been uncommon to find a cassette as large as SRAM’s Eagle 10-50 a few years ago. Alex Evans The AirBike UK 10 Speed Cassette 11-34T is an exceptional and economical alternative to mainstream brands, specifically designed to meet the needs of cyclists looking to repair or upgrade their bike. This high-quality cassette is compatible with both Shimano Cassette 10 Speed and 10 Speed Shimano Cassette systems, as well as Sram. I'd also mention that there are sub-compact set ups that use mountain bike sized chainrings and touring chainsets (some very high end, like the TA Carmina and Middleburn X-type) and even Shimano's mountain bike chainsets. At the budget end, the Stronglight Impact chainsets offer doubles and triples with very useful combinations of chainrings. Please be aware that depending on your specific hub and set up, you may require a spacer for the 10 speed 11-34 cassette to function smoothly. This may be a 0.5mm, 1mm or 1.85mm spacer, available in store. Tech Tip: This cassette is compatible with all Shimano 11-speed road derailleurs. However, you should choose the same tooth count as your existing cassette or confirm the maximum cassette capacity for your derailleur before choosing)

Proudly designed and hand-finished in the UK, the AirBike UK 11 Speed Cassette 11-34T boasts Hyperglide-style shift ramps for smooth and efficient gear changes. This versatile cassette is designed to replace Shimano and Sram HG splined hub cassettes, fitting MTB, Road, Hybrid and Mountain bikes with ease. We're going to focus on Shimano systems in this article, as that covers the majority of bikes out there. Rear derailleur capabilities However, 11-34 is the best option. And with substantial knowledge of the switch, a pro would be more comfortable using the 11-34 cassette to the 11-30. Grayed-out rows in the table below indicate cassettes which were listed in the 2011 catalog but are no longer listed in the 2016 catalog. SRAM also offers just two cassette sizes in its Eagle lineup – 10-50 and 10-52. The 10-52 is the widest-range cassette made by either manufacturer. Although there are currently two options, it’s likely the 10-50 will be phased out in time because it has been superseded by the 10-52.On the mountain bike side, Shimano uses its Microspline freehub standard for its 12-speed Deore, SLX, XT and XTR groupsets. These days, it is increasingly common to see higher-spec road bikes with 12-speed gearing, Shimano having joined SRAM and Campagnolo with 12-speed groupsets in 2021 with the release of its Dura-Ace Di2 R9200 groupset. Then someone points their finger in the distance and mentions "you could get from your home to the library via this route, it's flat and fast and..." I currently run a full ultegra 6700 groupset with a 105 5700 short cage rear derailleur on my Planet X Nanolight. I have an 11-34 cassette with a 50-33 frankest. The 33 inner is a TA Specialities item and the 50 ring is a Strong light CT2. My frame has very short chainstays and everything shifts superbly, the Stronglight rings ramps and pins are better than Shimano !

The capacity of a Shimano 105 front derailleur, for example, is 16T so it’ll cover all of the common double chainset combinations. Only you can know exactly what gear that should be. If you can find a gear ratio tool that displays speeds for a given gear, wheel size and rpm. This one seems pretty good.Please Note: The 11-34T version of this cassette is the “CS-HG800” model as Shimano does not make the CS-R8000 in an 11-34T version. Cassette Ratios: For mountain bikes, 12-speed cassettes are largely the default for higher-spec groupsets, paired with a single-ring chainset. The 11-30 cassette has many interesting features, but the 11-34 is also a good option. Although the 11-34 is an improved and more recent version, the 11-30 is also very useful. Both cassettes satisfy different riding purposes, speeds, and environments. What is 11-30 Cassette? Cassettes listed below will fit most Shimano and Shimano-compatible Freehub bodies, with the following exceptions: SunRace does not give tooth counts in the 2016-2017 catalog but there are tooth counts in the earlier catalogs. SunRace listed a 12-32 10-speed cassette in the 2013-2014 catalog but did not give tooth counts for it.

Shimano’s HG freehub design was the most common option for many years. Felix Smith / Immediate Media Shimano got on the low-gear train with its GRX components including 46/30 chainsets. Going for a triple chainset That is why if you’re buying the 11-34 cassette to replace an older cassette, you should also buy a chain that will be long enough to carry down to the 34th teeth. 11-30 vs. 11-34 Cassette Weight So, there I was, under that tree, just enjoying life while eating a watermelon with a big spoon. Yes, I rode up the mountain with it in the rear bags. I fancied eating it.I live in a hilly area so every time I cycle, I can't avoid hills almost immediately, averaging 5-11%. So for a recovery cycle, I still can't avoid pushing high watts. I'd sacrifice top end speed and even tolerate gaps in the gear ratios elsewhere (which I know would make my cadence uneven here and there) to make the hills easier to climb. I enjoy high cadence so spinning going up a climb is my preference. I don't race so basically challenge myself at times and then need recovery rides.
