Ultegra triple to Wi-Fli style compact

Hi Folks,

I have an Ultegra/Tiagra mix triple — it's a 2012 Giant Defy 0, so Ultegra shifters and derailleurs with the rest made up of Tiagra and R563.

I'm interested in switching to a compact with the option of a Wi-Fli like 11/32 on the cassette. The idea being that I can keep similar ratios, but have the simplicity of a double up front, with fewer gear changes and less trimming etc.

What are my options do you think? What can I keep from the current setup, and what are my options for the cassette?

Specialized Allez 16 upgrade

Hello everyone,

I've got a Specialized Allez 16 and im looking to upgrade my groupset.

Since my bike has a square taper BB, what upgrades can i actually get? And would i be able to swap out the bottom bracket for a better one eg, hollowtech type?

Hope someone can help, maybe someone has already carried this upgrade out.

Thanks

Rikki
