i've only started looking into this (this morning), so excuse my ignorance, whilst i continue researching
i have an italian steel frame 1992ish - i love the frame, but it's a lot of weight.
130mm rear spacing
shimano ultegra hubs, currently takes an 8 speed block
Looking into modern day 105 groupsets, 10 speed.
mainly as a weight saving exercise, and for better shifting functionally.
any precedent for this please?
my main concern is whether the rear hub can take a 10speed block, as when i got the wheels, i tried a 7 speed block on the hub, and it would have required a spacer, so I'm wondering if i'll come across the same issue.
