I want to play around and experiment with customizing my shimano cassettes.
I've got several 9 shimano cassettes both DA & ultegra lying around all in
good shape so wear isn't an issue & I don't want to buy another cassette or
suffer a weight penalty over what I have now by much. I seem to have
accumulated 12-25, 12-27, 11-23, 11-12 & 12-23 around some more than 1.
I've seen where one can get individual Miche cogs in the higher cogs. Can
these be used to replace the upper 2 or 3 cogs in a shimano 9 or does one
have to buy a complete Miche cassette & then substitute out with their cogs?
I'm not familiar with Miche & wonder how their weight is compare to shimano.
I've seen where both SRAM & Miche make the cassette I'm looking for but the
SRAM seems heavy. Or could I get it & swap out the ones I need & mix it in
the shimano?
I got 2 different bikes with 9 speed one with 700c & the other with 650
where I like the 11t but don't need it on the 700c. I generally run a 11-25
(650) or a 12-25 (700). I have a 12-27 and don't like it so I don't want to
waste money on another whole cassette. I'd prefer to have the last 3 be a
21-23-26 or something. I'd like to play around with it from about the 17 on.
Also I have another bike set up with 2 11-25 in 10 speed, one for training
in ultegra & 1 in DA for racing. Could I also play around with Miche or ??
10 speed cogs for it.
Thanks for your input.
