I am thinking about changing my Shimano 105 5700 Compact Chainset to a 105 5700 double chainset. If I do this what implications would there be? Longer chain?
If going down that route go for the 11-23, much tighter gear cluster, lighter and you could drop a couple of links in the chain (still recommend fitting a new one though SRAM hollowpin 10 being my suggestion bout 35 squid)From what I have read it might be easier just changing my cassette from a 12/25 to a 11/23 (or 11/25). I just want a bit more top end speed down hills and on the flat.
Probably less expensive too and will give similar top gear ratios, EDIT the Ultegra that isI have a Shimano 105 12/25 set at the minute so was either going to go for the 11/25 105 5700 cassette or the ultegra 6700 11/23. Probably favouring the ultegra
