Hi,
I’ve just bought a transition rapture cross bike off a mate to use as a gravel bike- I’m excited to see some new trails!
Its come with
-10 speed 105 shifters- St-5600
-Tiagra rear mech, Shimano RD 4500 / SS – 9 Speed it think
-38 tooth narrow wide ring
I have a hope pro 2 hub arriving to build into some new rims
I’d like to run a 10 speed deore 11-46 10 speed cassette and rear mech. Can I do that with the current shifters?
Also will that 38 11-46 be a decent spread of gears for a bike that will always end up doing significant road mileage before getting to any off road stuff? My road bike is on 50-34 chain rings and a 12-30 cassette and I’m out the saddle in the lowest gear on some roads.
Cheers!
Martin
