I´m looking for a R7000 105 rear cassette 11-34 but I´m struggling.
Can anyone point me in a direction of one? If not, any other option I might be able to use?
I´m in Austria so European is fine.
Thanks in advance

I was going to suggest Merlin Cycles, but the last one they probably had is now sitting in front of me ready to be fitted to my winter bike. Sorry!

Bought a 105 32 from decathlon this week. No 34s available that I can see.

Sorry no 11-34 but the others seem a decent price:

You are the best. Thanks.
Anyone know where I can get 50 and 34 chainrings for r7000 105 cranks?

NB a lot of independent local bike shops that don't do online sales have kit like cassettes, pads, chainrings etc that can't be found on the bigger websites. But you need to call around. A shop 30 mins from me had half a dozen 11-34 cassettes recently.

You think rear cassettes are hard to find, try getting a front one!

Here's an interesting one. There are online platforms with Chinese sellers selling internationally, and local platforms in China.

Out of interest, I searched on this cassette, maybe I could get you a link to a seller. We can still, just, buy it in China, but it's not on the international supplying platforms.

Looks like stocks are starting to run dry in China finally. No new stock is going to sellers with high turnover numbers (particularly international sellers). I've even seen a case of an international buyer receiving a "compatible" product and getting (righteously) upset about it.

With other items, I've had a bad month. Order stuff, and week(s) later being told the stock is old and damaged, or they've sold it via another platform/shop and not updated their stock records. It's becoming near impossible to buy high-end branded stuff in China now, and particular spares/service parts. If we can't get it, next to Malaysia and Taiwan, then it's a signal perhaps of seriously supply chain issues coming.

I just had to stock up on mayonaisse. The far east is running out of it. Restaurants commenting on it. Supermarket shelves virtually empty. I can eat without mayonaisse, but I can't ride without a cassette, chain or tyres. .

Just a heads up that Merlin have the 105 7000 level 11-34 in stock.

I ordered one of the Miche Primato 11-34s I mentioned earlier in the thread, partly out of curiousity, but also it was a few squids cheaper. Arrives tomorrow in theory.

At least on these road 11-34 variants, Merlin are strictly limiting people to two cassettes per order.
