What do I need to buy if I want an 11-32 cassette? Have to buy the wi-fli thingy groupo eh?
I'm rocking on a 28T..I think I can do some magic with a 32..ahaha.
Checking wallet....tsk tsk
Wifli is gonna be a complete change camp to SRAM ler.. you sure?
on Shimano.. i think you can still swap a MTB RD on a non-dura ace group... but the cage will be too long...and a new chain as well as you need the extra links...
the other way is.. get a GS type RD.. mid length RD instead of the SS type you have (short cage)
http://www.shimano.com/publish/content/glo...pe-rd_road.htmlhard to find in KL unless you can find someone with a triple crank road bike who wants to convert... then you can buy it off him... i have a Ultegra GS but i lost the derailleur pulleys... it's buried in dust now and i sort of sawed off the cage's pulley safety tab as well..
so, in total if shimano... no big hacks.. jus parts swap for a 32T cassette...
1) Mid cage RD
2) New chain with enough links... at least 114 (i think it's 114) links
3) 32T cassette... PG-1050 SRAM or if you can find or have money.. a PG-1070
if you want to hack it with a MTB cassette.. 36T.. you can always do it the bad ass way by taking out the b-limit screw and screw it in reverse.. meaning screw head against the frame..
Nick Legan documented it before.. he even made a Di2 Durace short cage run with 32T i think... which is what wayne stetina of shimano uses on his daily ride...

get a long cage RD. i think shimano also has long cage, but not sure up to which gruppo
it's actually a mid cage.. but they call it long in road groups...
harder to find mid cage MTB RDs though...
QUOTE(mrjgx @ Sep 7 2012, 11:30 AM)
this is not the conventional way la.. 36T is too much unless you are meeting gradients in excess of 25%
do have to warn you that long cage RD suffers with sloppy shifting a bit... and the also you find a lot of gears missing during flat sections of road where cadence jumps will be more higher than usual...
meaning the gear ratios will be less closer...

Just want to try it out, see what the whooo haaa is all about.

important is your base.
train up leg power, any 28 or 32 or 36 will be added advantage!
WRONG!!!...
what pro cycling teaches us is that ...important is your drugs... remember to bring it always...
that or an EX5...
