I am servicing my Condor Agio by getting new wheels, tyres, inner tubes, brake pads, chain, brake and gear cable (inner and outer) and looking to maybe get new shifters or even a complete set and wonder if my chain wheel and crank, which is Shimano Tiagra (Picture 1), is in need of replacement? I only use it occasionally so will not splash out.
The Agio is a lovely bike which is easy to ride and incredibly comfortable. I've had a love affair with Condor for years (I had a Squadra first, which got nicked, then an Italia RC with Campag bits, which got nicked) and this one feels great.
It is 16 speed on two front cranks and I am currently running it on Tiagra rear derailleur but the shifters are Sora. I bought a new eight speed cassette about two years ago (Picture 2). Is it OK?
I have in my possession (Picture 3).
A, 2 Shimano Sora shifters
B, 1 single Shimano R5 shifter
C, 1 Tiagra rear derailleur
D, 1 Sora rear derailleur
E, 1 Shimano derailleur (middle one) I don't know what it is but it looks good.
And (Picture 4 and 5) 2 Shimano shifters (I don't know what they are?)
Any ideas for new wheels?
My intention is to reduce weight and drag, have the drive work smoothly with no errors or problems and efficient braking.
