I’m looking for a pair of Shimano 11 speed road shifters. Not Di2 or hydraulic, just cable.

Suitable price paid.

Thanks.

Thanks so much. That's really helpful.

All,

Sorry if these are stupid questions but if you’re not sure, you ask.

Is there a difference between rim brake shifters and disc brake shifters? I’m talking purely cable here, not hydraulic.

I have an 11 speed set up. Can I run Shimano shifters with a SRAM rear mech? Again, cable not hydraulic.

Thanks in advance for your help.

No, two extra tools. You used to be able to simply use a 5mm allen key to release 5 chain ring bolts.

I was only trying to offer an example of over engineering.

I hate the way the cycle industry has treated its customer over the years. I suppose the motor industry is the same in that mechanics are made more challenging and everything is over-engineered to make you spend more money within that industry.

'Sorry mate, this has been machined so you can only run with this that' or 'You'll need a special tool for that, and that's £20'. Two years late, it's obsolete.

Here's an example; I've recently bought a second-hand CX bike. It came with a SRAM Force Chainset containing a 40T ring. As I am planning to use this bike on the road as well as off the road, I bought a SRAM Force 50T ring.

So, I've got the bike up on the workstand and have observed that the chainring bolts have allen key fittings on both sides; one side is 4mm, the other side requires a 5mm key and loosen when both allen keys are turned in opposing directions. I loosen off 4 of the bolts to find the 5mm side bolts have separate spacers so at this point I have 12 pieces of metal in my hand. I then turn to the bolt that attaches to the inside of the crank arm. This requires a TORX tool.

So, to recap, I need 3 tools, 2 hands and end up with 13 pieces of metal in my hand just to change a chainring.

The world's gone mad.
