I'm going to be changing the rear cassette on my dad's old "retro" specialized hardrock. It currently has a 7 speed 11 to 28 rear cassette. Can I change the ratio to 12 to 32 and keep the same chain length?
He isn't a high speed cyclist and I think he'd prefere a few easier climbs.
Also rear mech is an old shimano acera, would this still work with the new ratios?
I'm a maintenance novice keen to learn.
Thanks in advance for any help
