bike build
Hi im building my first road bike and am in search of chain, cassette, and brakes. ive bought my frame, wheels, shifters, and rear derailleur off ebay and plan to do the same for these parts if possible to save $. For brakes i was thinking some used ultegra or 105s, or i can get a brand new set of Tektro 580s for 40 bucks total buy it now. any other brakes i should take into consideration. I would like to get my chain and cassette new so they wear evenly, but i cant justify around $80+ for a 105 set. does shimano make just a plain jain, tough 10 speed set?
Also ive heard i should changed my chain every 1500 miles? what about cassette? thanks
