first, if your bike has road bike style crankset, then there are no 22t sprockets for it. though a mtb crank will fill a 22t. second a 32t cassette will get you up any hill with a 30t crank sprocket. also the 11-32 has a smoother gear ratio between sprocket then 12-34. If you decided to swap cassette, make sure that your chain is long enough as well as your derailleur cage.

this is a mountain cassette it wont work. yhe hub is different (im pretty sure)

Hi, I'm sorry I'm not familiar with that deraileur. I would suggest checking the shimannnp website to see if they have a comatibility list. Good luck.

My chain rings are 22,32,42 and I find I can go anywhere I want with my 8-speed 32-12, which is no longer made. You may find it on eBay. By the way, if you have a rear wheel with an 8-speed cassette, you can use a 7-speed cassette with a spacer to replace the spot where first gear usually is. Sometimes the 7-speed cassette will have rivets that stick out but they can be ground flat and work fine. All my bikes have 8-speed hubs, so I can use either 8-speed or 7-speed with the spacer. I don't like 9-speed and up because of the narrower chain.

If you are planning to user them on a bike with derailers you may not have success because the hub is make for flip flop of one cog. You can use the wheels on the frame but suggest to ride it as a single speed or a fixed gear. Your brakes might work but will show wear due to rubber pads rubbing on wheel edge.

The only difference between cassettes is the number of gears and the sizes. Calling it road or mountain is more marketing than anything.It may not be compatible with certain road derailleurs though, which are smaller and cannot accomadate as big a change in gear sizes. The key numbers here are the largest gear it can accommodate and the total capacity, you'll have to look up the specs of the derailleur you want to use it with.

Not any derailleur. on my bike, there are almost no space left between derailleur gear and the biggest gear. You will just have to estimate will there be enough space left if your your last gear grow up to 34 tooth

I use this derailleur with a 7 speed MegaRange cassette. The problem I have, is that the rear derailleur mounts with that "arm", thus causing the derailleur to hang low. This, in turn, causes the chain to hit my centerstand style kickstand in certain gear combinations. Annoying, but certainly not fatal. I will switch to another centerstand.

Katie, my tomasso road bike came with a 12-25 rear cassette which for most riders sort of standard. My problem with it is due to the amount of climbs in this area. I needed something easier on my knees as I'm pushing 50. I bought the 11-30 and it's much easier when I'm going uphill without pushing the red zone on my fitness pal. I probably would like the 11-32 but didn't want to have to change out on my rear derailer. So in summary the smaller gears are for in shape healthy young riders who can mash bigger gears. The 11-30 allowed me to gain more speed downhill and two gears extra on the steep parts which helps my knees and vox o2.

First, I don't know. I have found calling Shimano Customer Service line to be very helpful when I had the same question. But in my experience as long as the number of speeds is the same, and the largest/smallest sprocket size is the same, you should be OK. Again, you should call Shimano to confirm. It is based on the derailleur, and in my case, I discovered from Shimano customer service that I was able to keep my same derailleur when I made my switch.

This front derailleur is a triple, for mountain or hybrid bikes. It might "work" on your road double, but it is not a good choice.

This will work, but you need to check on the shimano web site to see if your rear deraileur will work with the 28 tooth cog. Mine made noise because the idler gears were making contact with the 28t cog. I ended up buying a new mid length cage rear deraileur. They are pretty cheap online.

If your rear derailleur will accomodate a 28 tooth gear, this freewheel will work. There is a website www.disraeligears.co.uk, on which you can look up the specs for your derailleur. It is also a good idea to install a new chain with the new freewheel. The old chain has worn in with the old freewheel. A new chain will shift better.

All name brand road shift cables and brake cables work on the rest. The difference is in the material. Shimano and Campagnolo are available in stainless steel which doesn't get old and rust and jam in the outer casings as the REALLY cheap stuff does. Some of the less expensive inner cables are made with steel wire but coat them with teflon of some nature. These seem to work fine but I've never used one long enough to get any idea of their lifespan. One thing you have to be careful is that shift cables come in different lengths. On tandems you need the very long ones that are 350 cm or so long. Most large road bikes with the deepest bars, longest stems can easily use the 210 cm cables but some sets are sold for small bikes and are only 170 cm long and may be too short for your bike. If you have to replace your rear derailleur inner be sure and measure it and keep it written down somewhere.

It all depends on your crank, this is a single speed narrow-wide chainring, no front derailuer needed. The brand of bike does not matter, the crank arm spacing and bike drivetrain are what make it compatible.

Freewheels and cassettes are two different and non-compatible gear clusters for the rear hub of derailer bicycles. If you are buying a new gear cluster and are presently using a 7 speed cassette, best to buy a direct replacement cassette gear cluster. If you bought a cassette and found out your hub was older and used freewheels then those are also available. Go to the Sheldon Brown website for a more complete description of both gear systems.

Not enough information to tell you if this derailleur will work for you. Need an idea of the cable routing and if cabless pull from the top or bottom of the derailleur. Sorry I can't help you resolve this question. Nick Carper

The cassette should work on any Shimano or SRAM hub. As far as I know, all Shimano hubs, mountain or road, use the same 'mounting pattern' for cassettes.
