Shimano Ultegra Triple gear shifter

I bought a Cube Streamer at the end of last year, and although I had only done a few hundred miles my gear shifter broke. The bike shop replaced it but was off the road for two weeks. Now after just another 1000 miles it has gone again. I hope they replace them but again this is pain to not have my bike. Has anyone else had any problems with this gear shifter

Chains - what's compatible with what?

Hello, I'm in need of a new chain. The one I want to get has 112 links, but the one I currently have has 116. Is there going to be a problem fitting the new one? I'm assured that it is Shimano 10 spd (which is what I have) compatible. I've seen all kinds that are compact only, different widths, pin lengths etc. I feel im in a minefield and am guarenteed to buy the wrong thing.
I currently have a Shimano 105 5701 chain on an 11-28 cassette with a compact chainset. and am plannig to get this chain: http://www.highonbikes.com/drivetrain/chains-road/kmc-x10-93-silver-grey...

OMG LOOK AT THIS

A nice picture of Garmin Sharp at TDF presentation.

But look closer at Captain America's S5.

What's that: Magura brakes, front and rear?

With Dura Ace shifters?

WAHEYYYYYYY, here we go. Call Me

changing to Shimano Tiagra

I have a 9 speed and I'm having trouble finding a new tiagra 4503 crankset. I've been told that I can use the newer 4603 which is for a 10 speed. Does anyone know if it is compatible? thanks

FS: Shimano 105 5600 STIs, Mechs, Calipers & Cassette SOLD

Most here will be familiar with this gear, but for what it's worth, Shimano say 105 'makes “pro-level" technology more accessible to part time racers and fitness enthusiasts. The Shimano 105 concept of "Smooth, Round and Natural" is consistently demonstrated in every component, giving its user a sense of satisfaction, pleasure and fulfilment.'

These are in very good condition, with some cosmetic scratches. However, having had low mileage, they still function superbly.
