Changing from 11-23 to 11-25 cassette

[funjunkie]

Hi fellow Hubbers. Im looking to change my 11-23 cassette to a 11-25 or possibly even a 11-27 cassette(Dont know if you get a 11-27). This will give me the gears for riding at speed whilst also the gears to climb. What are my options?

Do i need to buy a complete cassette or can I just get the necessary cogs that i need and mix and match to the gearing I need.

 

Thanks

as far as i know, they usually come in sets. ask around, maybe someone has the specific sprockets you need.

 

here are the dura ace combinations:
11-21 T. 11-12-13-14-15-16-17-18-19-21 ? thereof 17-18-19-21 Titanium
11-23 T. 11-12-13-14-15-16-17-19-21-23 ? thereof 17-19-21-23 Titanium
11-25 T. 11-12-13-14-15-17-19-21-23-25 ? thereof 19-21-23-25 Titanium
11-27 T. 11-12-13-14-15-17-19-21-24-27 ? thereof 19-21-24-27 Titanium
11-28 T. 11-12-13-14-15-17-19-21-24-28 ? thereof 19-21-24-28 Titanium

The assumption is that you ride Shimano?  Usually the biggest four or five sprockets on a cluster come as a set, so you have to buy the whole cassette.  Also look at SRAM cassettes if you ride Shimano as they are compatible and sometimes cheaper than Shimano.  Don't just look at the cassette that came wit your groupset, but look others too (in other words, if you have Ultegra, consider Dura-Ace, Ultegra, 105 cassettes too.  Might save you money or give you wider options)

 

I think SRAM even has a 11-28 option.  Cheaper than Dura-Ace, but I might be wrong (this one time only of course!)

Thanks for the advice. I do ride shimano. Will look at the options.
