The ugly RS505 hydro STIs are selling for buttons on eBay these days. If you're used to proper hydro you'll hate anything less.

I have Trp hydro on the arkose. I like them.
I just want some clickynlever to move the rear mech. (Will 11 speed Dura ace one move my 10 speed 105 mech? Probably right)

No, you would need a shiftmate

Fuck that.

(Will 11 speed Dura ace one move my 10 speed 105 mech? Probably right)

It'll move it. But not to the right places.

105 11 speed cassette here we come

A 11spd shifter will move your 10spd mech correctly (but the right amount for a 11spd cassette), so you'll need a 11spd cassette too as well as the shifter. Mech is fine.

I don't ever recall going through much more than pads in an average winter riding MTBs providing I cleaned it properly and that was riding a couple of times a week in the slop in the UK.

This is actually what I thought.

We’re talking about the Tiagra 4700 right? Not the older 10 speed 105/Ultegra/Tiagra?

(Will 11 speed Dura ace one move my 10 speed 105 mech? Probably right)

No - an 11 speed shifter expects a 1.4 pull ratio rear mech. A 105 10 speed mech has a 1.7 pull ratio. It'll move too far.

Actually, I'm wrong! ignore me.

Buy whichever derailleur the cheapest (4700, 5800, R7000 etc.).

(4700 have the same cable pull as 11 speed mean you can fit 105 GX derailleur on Tiagra 4700 shifter).

Go Di2 with the Hylex modification. You know you want to.

So 4700 STI (10 speed) will work with 11 speed rear mech on a 10 speed cassette?

Get out!
It's a bike I'd barely ride!

11-28 or 11-34 with a 38t

I've been used to 1*10 at 12-25 with a 38t
?

Its not gravel thread unless there is gear ratio chat

Do I have to say how fast I can go as well?

I'd like to have the option of dragging a 20kg mass up a South London hill without getting off the bike. I'd think 38 with 11-34 should do it right?

Basic entry requirement for this thread

How fast I am ?
I've been faster.

I've been faster

The 38t chainring told me everything I need to know ;-)

How can I forget?
