Chainrings compatibility
Greetings. I'm thinking about replacing my 4700's outer chainring (Tiagra 4700 110mm 50-34T 10spd) - it appears to be pretty beat up after just 4000km...surprisingly - and I found a slightly cheaper 105 version.
(1) So I'm curious, can the 105 FC-5800 110mm 50-34T 11spd be used instead... and is there really a difference when it comes to outer rings in terms 10 vs 11 speed (given the other specs are the same)? I'm still in the learning stage, as you can tell.
(2) Another option is to go with 4700 52-36T instead. Any thoughts on this vs. the 50-34T?
(3) And my last question... in the back, I have the Shimano HG500 11-34 10s cassette. Would this be compatible with any of the above-mentioned variations? (Does it matter, in general, which crankset it's paired up with?).
Cheers!
