shimano

So recently was installing some new Shimano lower end hydraulic brakes. As I'm paranoid about over tightening things, I shortened the hose, put in the joining insert and olive and screwed it in, but trying not to over tighten it. Well, the brake lever would initially hold pressure, but then...

On a shimano 6700 10 speed set up if i change the shifters to the new ultegra 11 speed will i still be able to use the 10 speed chainset currently fitted ? Also will the 11 speed chains run on it ? I'm assuming i will have to change the rear mech, is their anything else that will need to be...

Hi I have an Ultegra RD6800 SS derailleur for sale. It was sold to me (not on this forum) as a GS which it clearly is not! Its in good condition with very little wear and a few small marks. I would like £30 + £3 postage just to get my money back. I would also consider a swap for a GS mech in...

Interesting news from my LBS this morning: Great news from Shimano!!! They have found a way to finish the compact vs. mid compact debate and give you all the gears you need, all the time! They issued the following statement this morning: "For 2017 our top engineers have tried a bold new concept...

In great working condition apart from scratches to the plastic windows on the front. £40 PayPal gift delivered.

Finally getting around to moving the Ultegra groupset off my RT-58 and onto the Roubaix. Aside from changing the chainset, the only other part which may need changing is the front derailleur. The RT-58 is a band on Ultegra item, whereas the Roubaix frame has a braze on mount, so I cannot simply...

I have been using my Shimano PD-R540 SPD SL clipless pedals for about 20 months/2500 miles now and notice the left hand pedal shows more signs of wear on the body than the right hand pedal. This is no doubt due to the fact I unclip my left foot first. I've also noticed that it is becoming...

In very good condition. Only for sale as I have upgraded my groupset. £75 posted

Hey all, Currently upgrading my runaround, I'm currently tempted by some great deals on the Shimano 105 dual pivot brakes. The bike I have is a Schwinn 434 with old Shimano 600 single pivot brakes on the front (BR-6400) and old Shimano 105 single pivot on the back (BR-1050). Currently sporting...

Both work perfectly fine. Both have scratches! £60 for both, I do have the front mech in a box if someone needs it. Willing to deliver or meet half way!

Hi, Managed to damage my shifter last night replacing the cable (oops!). Does anyone have a Claris right-hand shifter (STI for a road bike) that they are selling, please? Thanks

Bought a bike recently that's a 105 setup but has Sora brakes. Just wondering if anyone can argue the benefits to say Ultegra vs sora brakes? I can't say they bother me that much but then I've only done 40km with them so far so can't make a call. Previous bikes had no particular range they just...

Having recently sold my commuter its time to sell on my winter bike as I have just built up a new bike to cover both duties. I have owned this from new and have original paperwork, its a 2013 Giant Defy 1 in a large. Bought as my 1st road bike it was upgraded to full 11 speed 105 last year and...

Hello, my rear derailleur plates got bent and I need to replace either the plates (which seem to be really hard to get) or a new derailleur. Any 9-speed Shimano GS Sora or better will do. Thanks!

I have only ever had Shimano gears on my bikes. For those who have had both, is there any difference between the two?

I am selling my fahrradmanufaktur tx 400 bike. I have used this bike for LeJog and for the Avenue Verte. It has recently had a full service and a new chain and bottom bracket. This bike is bomb proof and a dream to ride. It has Schwalbe Marathon Plus tyres and comes with a set of Schwalbe...

Hi Just bought a btwin ultra 700. This is my first road bike and I'm unsure which cleats/shoes are compatible with the pedals. The bike comes with a set of cleats for the pedals, the pedals are Comp VPR76. I'm looking at buying shimano R088 shoes, will these be compatible. Thanks

I bought these as part of a new groupset, knowing that the frame I'm building up needs long reach brakes, but it still worked out cheaper to buy the complete groupset. Fitted loosely to a frame (more in hope than expectation) to confirm I need long reach brakes, but in brand new condition...

A used pair of Shimano XC61 mountain bike shoes, size 38. Original RRP was around £150 and this is a 2014 pair. They've been used and have slight scrapes on each side, as per photos. Come without cleats. Features are: Aggressive dual injection-moulded mud-shedding tread pattern provides...

Just bought a new BB and the normal 3x 2.5 mm spacers have been replaced by 2x 2.5 mm, 1.8 and 0.7mm spacers making the same total of 7.5mm However just fitted mine and the 0.7mm spacer snapped. Unfortunately my old BB was already in the bin and the bin collection has been so I can't reuse...

If anyone is selling a 9 speed shimano road bike shifter, let me know please. I bought a dud off ebay that I can't fix. cheers

I'm looking at buying a set of decent wheels that I will use on fast weekend rides. Ideally, I'd be looking at carbon wheels with aluminium so that I don't have to change the brake pads every time I want to use the wheels Currently I have 2 bikes that I would like to use the wheels with, namely...
