The new 105 group set is stellar. Frankly, there is very little difference between it and Ultegra. For the vast majority of riders, R7000/R7020 is more than adequate, if not luxurious. Indeed, I have new Ultegra shifters and hydros on one bike and 105 on the other. I can’t tell the difference.

Really helpful thank you!!
Since my boyfriend does a lot of racing and I do a lot of hills around town running errands, I came up with a dumb way to remember this so I stop wearing myself out using the wrong gears.
Here, Butt refers to the cassette in the back, and Arms refers to the gears in front.
Big butt, small arms climbs hills.
Small butt, big arms wins races.
And now you have to think about butts!!!

I have a Shimano Mountain bike with RevoShift gears.
I am 87 years old and find pedalling uphill really taxing. Which combination left and right, of gears would make it easier?

Yo that’s what’s up. Thanks for sharing the secret!
T Mayberryon June 25, 2019 at 7:18 pm
Old 9 speed wow. A person should buy what they can afford. Not what the local lbs say or what everyone in the group ride is running. Do what you like ride what like just ride
Connor Con June 25, 2019 at 7:19 pm
U find the amount of speeds by multiplying the amount of back gears with the amount of front gears, because if u think about it the amount of different speeds you can go is the amount if different combinations u can make with the gears
Vijay Prasadon June 25, 2019 at 7:19 pm
Kept it so simple..thanks for the video

I bought an 8 speed bike….NOOOOOOO!!!!!
Avery Waldenon June 25, 2019 at 7:21 pm
It confused the hell out of me until i thought of it as a gear ratio
T Mayberryon June 25, 2019 at 7:23 pm
By the way there is nothing wrong with 9 speed and remember 11speed is old since the introduction of 12 and 14 speed
NIVETHA Eon June 25, 2019 at 7:24 pm
I like the way u talk
Sauraton June 25, 2019 at 7:25 pm
Incredible that you didn’t explain that the crankset numbers refer to the number of teeth on the cogs. You think it’s so obvious? No it isn’t . I am 56 and I just learnt that a few months ago. Take nothing for granted.
"I have eleven gears on the back of my bike…" No, you have eleven cogs on the back of your bike, therefore you have eleven gears. Take. Nothing. For. Granted! You are only adding to the mystification.

Emma Roughleyon June 25, 2019 at 7:31 pm
Great explanation but I still don’t understand how that applies to the little gear toggles on the handles.
Philosophy BAon June 25, 2019 at 7:38 pm
UCI needs to require mouthguards or fenders at least. How can you ride and inhale all that garbage off the road. Surprized if it doesnt give cancer. My MTB has 3-spoke wheels. I’d gladly buy a quality folding carbon aero MTB and helmet. I think it’s time to get past Penny Farthing now. If anyone wants to consult me for bike design let me know. Why isn’t MTB included in triathlon?

I’m confused and too lazy to keep shifting gear. I just want to stay on one gear the whole time I’m riding.. is that possible or is it a must that i keep changing?
salmanaq87on June 25, 2019 at 7:41 pm
Close to the frame easier and away harder, front and back both
Alleah B.on June 25, 2019 at 7:45 pm
Great job, I have watched a ton of videos trying to figure out how to use my gears. This one was the best!
Alejandro Coronadoon June 25, 2019 at 7:45 pm
Easy:
Outer gears: harder but faster
Inner gears: easier but slower

Where were you when I was buying my 9-speeder last summer? Huh? Where were you? Lucky for me there’s another me out there who’ll probably buy it off me this spring without caring about how many speeds it is. Meanwhile ($2000 later) I’m looking forward to taking things to the next level with my shiny new English racer with full Ultegra 11-speed groupset.

I prefer a triple up front, on a steel frame.

John Gibsonon June 25, 2019 at 7:53 pm
I was disappointed to see no comment about the older terminology of ten-speeds and freewheels. There are many good rides out there with pre-"11-speed" kit. You also left out mention of the current fashion of single chainring. Overall I think this video may mislead as many people as it helps.
Cycling gearing can be confusing. This video simplifies all the terms and explains how your gears impact your riding.
Thank you! Very helpful.
Witch schould I get gear6 or gear7
Just buy what you can afford.
Awesome! Didn’t know then! Now I know now! Thanks dude!
I climb faster in the little ring. Big is not always faster.
Thanks idubbzz
I’m new to bikes so I just bought a cheap-ish bike just now so It has a 21 speed shimano EZ fire shifter on it is that good ?
You are the best brother. You clear my don’t
Im 12 and ride a 21 speed (7 rear, 3 front, the bike is a next all terrain shock

105 is entry-level? Really?
The new 105 group set is stellar. Frankly, there is very little difference between it and Ultegra. For the vast majority of riders, R7000/R7020 is more than adequate, if not luxurious. Indeed, I have new Ultegra shifters and hydros on one bike and 105 on the other. I can’t tell the difference.
