Please, please, please use a derailleur hanger alignment tool between swapping derailleurs! This is best practice as mostly hangers are bent so always worth checking!

Cheap option For the rear mech is the 10 speed medium cage tiagra 4700 rear mech. This works with all 11 speed Shimano setups, but ironically it does not work on other 10 speed setups except For the tiagra 4700 shifters. Thank me later.
It's not as simple and, above all, cheap as it may seem. To switch from an 8-speed cassette and Claris derailleur to an 11-speed setup, you need to replace not only the rear derailleur, cassette, and chain but also the front crankset (due to the narrower chain) and the rear derailleur shifter, incurring additional costs. Usually, the hub that supports 8 speeds may not handle 10 speeds, so there's a concern about needing to change the hub as well. Additionally, the Ultegra derailleur won't work with the Claris shifter.
My other bike is fixed gear. Done this cassette thing on my adventure bike.46x30 chainrings, but think I can work out a 46x28 rig. The same range basically as 12 speed, but closer ratio using just 9 speed. 11-36 cassette. Tinkering is half the fun! I like shorter cranks and have 175mm now. Upgrade to hollowtech standard Samox, evenly spaced 4 arm 64mm bcd small 30 tooth ring and put 28 tooth in it's place. Probably go uphill 4mph at 80 RPM with a full touring load! Think the rear derailleur can just handle all that wrap. 9 speed chain can wear almost 1% before replacing, 12 speed. 5%.way cheaper to use 9 speed.
Tip: get the Sunrace CSMS8 11-36 instead of the shimano one, even more range and it as a 12 tooth cog so you have 11-12-13-15 instead of the big 11-13 jump at the top end. shifts maybe a tad harsher but just as fast/good.
Sunrace cassettes shift really good. I have a 7 speed 13-28 sunrace cassette in the rear and it’s shifting amazing. Even with a cheap shimano acera derailer
@@ulukai_555 45-51(13%) is actually way less difference in cadence than 11-13 (18%) and, on the top end, jumps tend to be much more noticeable anyway. so yeah, its a big difference to have 11-12-13 instead of 11-13 on a road bike. or to put it different: you almost need to go almost 9kph faster for the 11tooth cog to have the same cadence again that you had on the 13 tooth one. thats a hell of a difference. in perspective, 45-51 is only around one kph difference.
If you already have a long-cage derailleur and your wheel has a freehub, it's quite reasonable to get a new cassette and chain. If you aren't looking at high-end components anyway, or for an older bike, you could buy a long-cage derailleur, cassette, and longer chain on the cheap or gently used all cheaply as well. Problem comes if you're trying to replace a cassette for a bike with a freewheel... then you basically need new wheels. I happened to find a very closely-matching wheel with a freehub (what you need for a cassette) for my folding bike, that was dirt cheap at a shop that was getting rid of unused repair parts... but this isn't likely to be the case for many.
@@SajtosNokedli Exactly,...all i want is a bike that can take me to work and back home, im not an enthusiast, but im aware of the maintnence and i dont want to spend a fortune (Parts or tools)
Anyone else remember the days when the largest rear gear was 25 and compact cranks werent a thing. If you needed more gears, you would need a triple. Most people, myself included, just got stronger because we didn't want to be that guy with the triple.
I switched my giant tcr ultegra 7s 28 to a 7s 34 without having to get a new derailleur. Just a new chain. Cost me about $100. It’s awesome climbing hills
I also want to change the sprocket on my bike.. so it's hard to pedal uphill, that's why I don't have the money. It's nice because it's fun to ride a bike
I could use an up grade like that... My gears are slipping so freewheel forward and backward. To be honest that set up would be perfect for my daily an night commute
Ok, 2 things, if you remove the chain first (something you will be doing anyway) then you will find it easier to remove the wheel and you won’t get the new cassette dirty. Next, just use a wolf tooth type adapter rather than buy a new RD, it’s significantly cheaper. 🙂👍🏻 Also quick question, how is this “lighter?” It’s a bigger everything?
Can you do a video where we increase gears on the crankset in front ? I'd like to increase 2 gear to 3 gear and keep the 9 in back. I'm not an advanced rider, but need more middle gears.
you don’t need to go from 2 to 3 gears in the front, you would lose shift quality and chain retention by doing so. If you feel like you lack range then maybe your larger front chainring needs to be a bit smaller, you can have a shop source a new front chainring and you will be able to spin a little easier.
It sure seems wiser to replace one part instead of three or four, if it's possible to go that low in front. Replacing the cassette with a larger one will of c get you larger leaps between gears which I personally don't like when I'm on my road bike. Aand the WEIGHT goes up 😱 Also, check the capacity of the derailleur before you replace it. Unnecessary to replace if the derailleur can handle the new cassette.
What’s the point in getting a bigger outer ring? Yes, you shouldn’t ride that for hours because of the bad chain line, but it’s meant for super steap climbs. And yes the new derailleur probably isn’t needed. Only adjust the distance to the cassette in lowest gear.
Non-ergonomic cassette. The small chainrings should be changed in 1 tooth steps. With this cassette you will lose power when shifting at higher speed. Example of a comfortable 11-s cassette: 11-12-13-14-15-17-19-21-24-27-30 teeth
You can’t just say “do this” in your tidal. The average person doesn’t know what to look for and every bike is different so what he shows you may not work for you. You would be better off just going to a bike shop and getting someone there to talk to you about your shifting.
If you need a 36 to climb, there wouldn't be no use of a 12 or 11 on the flat. No average human can pulled thoses gears ! And on top of that you get big holes in in your midrange gears !
"no average human (sic) can pulled (sic) thoses (sic) gears!" HAHAHAHA Hey, Frenchman. Sorry your knees can't handle a 11T sprocket, let alone a 12T sprocket. Many of us can. Also, if you get "big holes" (lol => big gaps, bucko - you're the one with a big hole) between your gears, I wonder how you used to ride 10, or 20 years ago... It's a bit pathetic that now, some people actually think it's impossible to ride a road bike if you don't have a 1T gap between each sprocket...
I can already pop wheelies with by accident in lowest gear, and I'm yet to top the speed out in max, like, still doing 120rpm at 35mph in max on a £400 bike. I don't need this.

changing front chain rings is easier and cheaper
Changing the rear cassete gives you a wider range of wider gears which you can shift into more regularly
Ultegra chainrings are far more expensive and don't achieve the same change in ratio, you lose top end to gain bottom.
Sprocket?
Depends on what is the worst worn.
