I'm on 5600 shifters on my do-everything bike and the gear changes are getting really sloppy now. Getting rid of the exposed cables also would be nice, so...
If I want to keep it 10sp, can I simply get 5700/6700 shifters and not worry about the RD? I believe the 4700 shifters require a 4700 rd due to a change in cable pull, right?
Bit late to this, but you can always get Sora 9 speed instead, the shifting performance is already way better than the old 5700, providing you're replacing the chain and cassette to 9 speed once it worn out.
