Yes, I think 11 is overkill for me. Thanks for the help.

Are the benefits of the 10speed clutch mech something worth going for over going even lower to the 8/9 speed stuff? It seems like a technology that actually makes some difference but I have no experience other than reading just online info.

All I really care about is not bothering people riding behind me on the roads as my 32/17 single is too slow but I think getting a 16 or smaller cog would become too difficult for me to get up hills. Having the chain less likely to pop off seems a good thing.

thanks, that's what I was serching for but was hoping for the lower cost ones to work. chain reaction page says it only works with other shimano chains/ mech - is that scaremongering or is there some reason sram wouldn't work.

I've not bought anything yet so I could buy whatever combo (lower budget) but I've never had gears before and all the compatibility is driving me nuts.

I'm only going for the 11 as it's newer and less likely to become obsolete and at the low end not too much more spendy, keeping the chain on with the type 2 shadow + thing seems like a good thing so that rules out less than 10. Should I just forget about that and get a 10 set up? I just want to go faster down hill than my 32/17 single.

are there 11 speed cassettes that would fit a shimano 8/9/10 freehub that don't have the biggest cog around 40t. I'd prefer something 11 - 32 ish.

I'm guessing something like the SRAM PG-1130 11-speed cassette will be too wide unless it's the 11-42 version, is that correct or will it fit?

pm'd about the pedals and seatclamp.

I read that you got some earlier in the thread, I just assumed maybe you had some sort of industry connection to get the shop to sell them to you because whenever I've tried I got nowhere. I'll try a different shop and see if they'll order them for me, cheers for the info.

Think I have another pair of the Alt bars here

If you've got those bars I'd definitely buy them, been trying to get some for ages and never had much luck. The Genesis dealers I've tried are telling me they're not available aftermarket.

Does it come with the seatpost clamp and the straps? What size seat clamp? Do you have little block thing I'd need to put it on the front?

interested in the animal pedals, how much?

I found these, both brand new. Seem too good to be true though so I'm a bit suspicious...

Thomson Elite 31.6mm:

and

Thomson Elite 30.0mm:

He had Masterpiece ones too but they all went quick.

I've been looking at these, Altura ones, it says in the blurb they roll up. Can't tell if there any good though from just the online info, anyone seen them in the flesh?

is the Wald basket still around?
