Schreck, George

A nine speed Shimano cassette will work on a new Shimano wheel as the

wheels are 9/10 speed.



If you want to upgrade, you will have to change both shifters, rear

derailleur, chain, cassette. You can use the crank set, but may have to

change the rings, although many times you do not have to do so.

Subject: [OBRA Chat] Wheel upgrade question(s)





I'd like to upgrade my wheels this year and have a couple questions on

what else I need to consider before I do it.



It seems a majority of the wheelsets take 10 speed cassettes. My bike

currently has a 9 speed / 105 drivetrain. Aside from getting the wheels

and a new cassette, are there any other parts I would be forced to

upgrade. Rear derailleur? Shifters? Chain?



I don't want to bite off more than I can (financially) chew and I'm

curious if moving to a 10 speed cassette will ripple through the rest of

the bike.



Thanks,

Mike
