I researched this in past threads, but i'm still not sure which parts will work with what. I currently have a sora equipped 24speed bike and want to change the crankset to a 105 double. Obviously i'm going to need to buy another bottom bracket. My question is: will my front sora derailleur and sora shifter work with the 105 double crank or will they need to be replaced also? Thanks for the help...
