cassette

Hi all, daughters bike only a week old. Chain slipping when putting effort in. Checked tension of gear cable to rear derailer and seems but slack. Compared to the front cog cable. Tried loosening but and pulling tighter then re fastening but can't seem to get any more tension on the cable. Any...

Thread a while back i promised someone an 8 speed cassette if they PM ed me their address but i never received it so if you still want it .............

Replaced a spoke today and re-trued the wheel - quite pleased as it was my first. Ruined it by shearing the threads putting the cassette back on. I was using the park tools tw2 beam wrench. It showed nothing like 40 Nm, but I wish I'd trusted my gut which was telling me something was wrong...

Evening. I am confused. I have a shimano 105 cassette on my old wheels that I need to transplant onto my new ones. I know I need a lock remover, but what one? Can someone tell me what I need??

I currently run a 11/28 and seem to cope with almost all of the hills around the flatlands of essex. Recently I did a 50mile ride with a group and somehow we seemed to stumble of 9! Yes 9 catogery climbs around Suffolk and essex. Non of which I failed on but a couple I felt I could of done...

My daughter is looking for a new bike. She currently has an 11-32 cassette mated to a 34-50 chainring which she gets on well with in the area she lives in Yorkshire, with a fair few hills around. She says a lot of the new bikes she is looking at have 11-28 cassettes and has asked what...

Well had the bike just about 4 months now & it's starting to show a few marks despite my best efforts to keep it nice and tidy & treated with kids gloves . Is there anything that I can use to keep my rear cassette looking shiny & new though & it's starting to look a bit grubby , currently just...

Hi all, from the excellent and much appreciated advice from fellow members l decided to try a set-up on my winter bike rather than my summer bike. I got a new chain for 9 speed and a low cost long arm deraillier mech(shimano Altus). The set-up looks pretty good with clearence between the jockey...

Probably a silly question, but the gears on my commuter have begun to slip; usually when I'm taking off in one of the higher gears. Feels like the ratchet on the freewheel has worn and isn't gripping properly. general pedalling isn't a problem, only when I'm taking off from a stop. As my...

The plastic 2.18mm one that goes between the sprockets please. One or more if you have any? Thanks

Hi I have a set of Fulcrum Racing 5's circa 2007-8 vintage with a cassette I can't identify The bike has all shimano shifters and derailleurs. However the cassette is removed using a campagnolo lockring tool. Clearly due to compatibility issues the cassette can't be campagnolo, so what is it...

I have the old cassette off and I've cleaned the free hub splines (?). And I'm about to fit the new one but it mentions grease.... What sort of grease for this and applied where?

Hi to you all out there. I have just discovered something rather odd whilst considering a wheel-swap on my Bianchi Via Nirone7 Alu Carbon from Mavic Open Pro (black rims) to Mavic Aksium (silver rims). Without removing the cassettes I just fitted the Aksium 10spd into the frame and turned the...

All in the title really. Package never been opened. Am in south London, 5 to 6 miles from centre, buyer pop round or with a bit of arrangement I can meet around a broad area of town - a nice bike ride anyway.

Currently have a 11/30 cassette on the carbon build - will i have to lengthen the chain if i go upto a 32t cassette to match my other bike build or should it be ok?? Thanks P.S. please don't respond if your just going to make silly comments about why would anyone need a cassette of that size

I've trawled through the interweb and strolled 'round several local bike shops, and it appears the only way i can buy one of these... ...is to buy an entire cassette. so I'm hoping somebody on here has replaced a cassette and has a relatively unworn 11 tooth gear/cog thingy for a splined...

Anyone ever used one ? I bought one from ebay as a closer ratio replacement for my subway as the gaps were to big and i never used the easier ones. I found it very noisy even when indexed . I will stick the old one back on and i have an sram 11-28 on order , i might out the monsoon one on the...

would like to know what people prefer in terms of this. i have ultegra rear cassette and chain and am looking to replace soon. any suggestions interms of alternatives..am looking at performance and longevity as key

Will an old chain slip on a new cassette? I know they do the other way around, but for a short period is it OK to run a new cassette without replacing the chain?

For sale: Shimano Ultegra 6700 shifters, good condition, scratched on levers but no scratches or damage to hoods or outsides from crashes. Ultegra 6700 brakes with almost new Swisstop green pads.. Ultegra 6700 front and short-cage rear derailleur. Rear has some rather expensive alloy jockey...

Hello All, I want to get lower gearing on my tourer. Not sure whether to go for a cassette with 36T lowest cog or an inner chainring, say, 24T, on the triple. Are there any mechanical issues that I should be aware of before buying? I.e., which route do you reckon would cause less set up...

As title thought I had stuff sorted but guess not Anyone got above lying about looking for new home just bought new front chain set so would like to do all at once Thanks

Has anybody got experience of using a ludicrously wide range cassette with a Campagnolo 10sp long cage mech (Comp triple)? I'm considering it with a compact crankset. Chain capacity on the mech is 39 which would allow 50/34 at the front with an 11-34 cassette at the rear. But... the mech is...

Can anyone recall when it was possible to the spit and join of their cassette sprockets, thus customise them, brilliantly!

My daughter has a Liv (Giant) Avail 3 with Shimano Sora components and a SRAM PG950 cassette. Would it be possible to replace the 9-speed SRAM cassette with a Shimano 105 11-speed cassette to give her more gears? The bike is equipped with Shimano Sora shifters and front/rear derailleur mechs...

Hi Guys, I have installed a new Ultregra 10 speed chain and a replacement cassette also 10 speed to my bike, all working fine apart from when in the larger cogs at the back it can jump like the chain is slipping? I changed from a 11-28 to a 11-25 but re-cut the chain to match chain that was...

Hi I was running 6700 cassette on Zipp 30s and today tried to change over to 6800 cassettes (the hub is a 11 speed one but I was using a spacer to run the 10 speed 6700). When I took the cassette off I noticed that some of the middle sprockets had cut into the freehub splines and made little...

More noob questions What is the difference and compatibility between cassettes I've just ordered a new chain and thought that I have a look at cassettes as well Written on my existing cassette is Shimano cs hg 200 - 9 , will any Shimano 9spd cassette of the correct range fit? Wiggle have an...
