New wheels - new cassette/chain?

Posted on
  • Seeking advice / opinions...

    Just bought a pair of DT Swiss PR 1400 Oxic wheels as an upgrade from the Fulcrum Racing 5s that came with my road bike. I've ridden about 1,500 miles on the Fulcrums and SRAM Force 22 drivetrain that came with the bike. Is it worth getting a new cassette (and chain?) to set up the new wheels - is there any reasonable justification for this after 1,500 miles? I am thinking probably not! If I got an identical cassette, is there any need for a new chain?

    Cheers!

  • How does it ride?

    Find yourself a chain-wear indicator and work from the reading it gives you.

  • always upgrade chain / cassette at the same time
