Looking to update the gearing on my gravel bike. It’s currently running an 8 speed set up (Claris Mechs & Shifters / FSA Chainset). I’m looking at going to a 10 speed road set up. Question:
If I buy shifters / rear mech / chain / cassette (lets say 105 spec) will I get away with running the existing front mech and chainset?
I have read that 8 /10 seed chains have the same internal dimensions but want to be sure. Also will there be problems with the front mech? I’m guessing cable pull will remain the same as number of rings still the same, but what about cage width?
Will upgrade chainset / f mech if needed or in time, but looking to see what needs to be done to get up and running.
