Any question answered...

Can I run a mountain bike 11 speed cassette with 105 11 speed?

The spacing of the sprockets will be the same, the size (mainly of the largest sprocket) will be the limiting factor, though I've heard of folk running up to 40t with an unmodified road mech. It seems to depend a bit on your mech/hanger geometry.

Can I run a mountain bike 11 speed cassette with 105 11 speed?

Don't forget the spacer behind the cassette if Shimano and 11s road freehub

Best "budget" (i.e. under £200) SRAM 10 speed compatible OTP road wheelset?

These look pretty nice

but you could do worse than these

Seen several people on here running these

Also Mavic Aksium etc

I’m building wheels and currently have 11 speed road but am not satisfied with the choice of 11 speed road compatible hubs so considering XT hub instead, which would mean 11 speed mtb cassette. Just wanted to know if it would work.

Will probably get 11-36 and a road link hanger extender.

Sure, if they're 11 speed mtb hubs then you'll be limited to mtb cassettes. Same as 10s road init.
Otherwise I don't do shimano so can't help :)

Thanks.

Is Drummond Street a good place to go for food tonight? I've only been for buffet lunch. How is it for dinner? Have they been disrupted by HS2 works? If good, which one do you recommend?

All the restaurants are still there.

If you're looking for meat then there's not that many options. Shah's is OK but nothing special. Raavi kebab is good but much more traditional rather than what you'd expect of a curry house (no beer either).

There was a good veggie buffet place I went to a few times but I can't remember what it's called...

Hurm. Where else to take a couple of middle-aged Germans near Euston/ Baker Street/ Marylebone, who are in town for a couple nights.
I don't really know them but I think they are up for relatively cheap and cheerful.

The second half of my post where I talk about the veggie places seems to have gone missing.

I'd favour the veggie ones as a bit different to your normal curry house. I like Ravi Shankar although Chutneys (which is probably the buffet one you're thinking of) is also decent.

I wouldn't say Drummond Street is a bad idea. Diwana and Ravi Shankar are the best there, in my opinion. You just get kicked out quite fast. Sadly, and rather reducing the quality of going out in that area, the Bree Louise closed last year:

That's a big loss.

Ha, I'm in the video in that article.

Thanks @aggi and @Oliver Schick

same length axle

Depends what you mean by length. It's not like you have any choice, so you don't even have to answer that. They have the same Q and either will go in a 68mm threaded shell or any oversized shell up to 86mm wide made for 30mm axles with the appropriate adapters.

So if you had a straight choice between the two (and had to choose one)??? Cheers

choose one

UltraTorque. If you don't work in aerospace, it's probably the only way you'll get to play with a Hirth coupling, which is in itself a pure joy. The bearings press onto the expensive axle and slide in the cheap cups, which is the right way around and the opposite of HT2, GXP, MegaExo, BB30, PowerTorque etc. It hasn't been discontinued, so there's more chance of getting replacement BBs for longer.

OverTorque is just PowerTorque made even worse by having an aluminium axle, and nobody who is paying for their own cranks needs the small weight saving and marginal increase in stiffness enough to compensate for that.
