Hello, I'm thinking of purchaseing a spare cassette whilst it in on sale, and I dont know much about it. I guess it is time for me to learn.
My current drivechain config is:
Shifters: Shimano Deore, 9 speed
Front: DerailleurShimano Deore
Rear: DerailleurShimano 105
Crank: Shimano M443 Octalink 48/36/26
Cassette:SRAM PG950 11-26, 9 speed
and I'm thinking of purchaeing a SRAM PG970 Cassette (11-32)or (11-34), to replace the PG950 in the future as I guess it will need replaceing in the next 6-9 months as I do around 370 miles a month. I would like to know the following before I made the purchase.
1) what's the difference between 11-26 & 11-32 or 11-34? Would I feel the difference?
2) will it fit to my current config? Do I have to change my chain length to fit it?
3) it is better off to let the LBS to fit it or DIY isnt that difficult?
Thanks in advance
