Hi I have a 9speed ultegra groupset. Currently using a 12-25 casette and am fairly fit. Picked up a 12-23 casette and a 11-21 casette. Deciding to use the 11-21 casette when im doing circuit ( Flat rides.) is that fine? need a suggestion on long rides. Should I use the 12-25 or 12-23. Tnanks

Just checked stuff again, however i did check chainring and casette is not damaged before i purchased. I found that the rear derailler and crank are Ultegra 6500. Where do i find model number on the FD and the sti levers ?? can abyone assist ???

Here is the pic of bike above

Ok heres the deal i have purchased a trek 1400 SLR 58 cm bike with a carbon fork. has all ultegra 9 speed stuff accept for the casette amd chain. Bontrager seat and rims + sigma computer. Cassette is i think tiagra abd chain is definitely 105, I have purchased it for R4000 and need to know if it is worth it. I have no idea how old the ultegra groupset is ??? How do i find out what year model the ultegra is and secondly is it worth the price ??

I need some help . I have ultegra 9 speed Crank,RD, FD, brakes and sti but I think my casette and chain are not ultegra. My casette has CS-HG 50 90 printed on it and my chain has hg-73 or something liKe that. Can I use the new ultegra or 105 10 speed casette AND chain with the current equipment
