ZippIt Posted September 22, 2010 Share Question: would you have issues with gear settings (ie would you need to adjust) if you had two wheels with different cassettes on them and ran them on the same bike. eg 11-23 on the 1 wheel and 11-25 on the other.

Eldron Posted September 22, 2010 Share Question: would you have issues with gear settings (ie would you need to adjust) if you had two wheels with different cassettes on them and ran them on the same bike. eg 11-23 on the 1 wheel and 11-25 on the other. I have 3 bikes and 5 sets of wheels and all are interchangable - cassettes are 11-23, 12-25, 11-25 - no worries. Some of the wheels need a quarter turn up or down on the rear der cable tension though. Some issues could appear if the wheel axle spacing is different. Shouldn't be though - tolerances there are quite small. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Underachiever Posted September 22, 2010 Share I run exactly the same set-up; 11-13 and 11-25. Agree with Eldron, needs some fine-tuning on the RD cable tension. Otherwise no issues at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wannabe Posted September 22, 2010 Share I also use two wheels, 12-23 and 12-25 (9 spd).No issues at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stewie911 Posted September 22, 2010 Share I'll be doing it from next month. Zippit, will each casette have it's own chain? They need to, otherwise you'll have problems with chain length etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeps Posted September 22, 2010 Share I change between an 11-23 and an 11-25 and have had no problems with chain length. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Minion Posted September 22, 2010 Share Chain length is quite tolerant. I dropped from a 12-25, 53-39 combo to a 12-25, 50-34 combo and the chain length is still fine. It's a little bit longer than what it would be if I built the bike up from scratch, but it still works 100%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
