what are the cassette gear sizes for the CS-HG50 7-speed 13-34T? (http://www.amazon.com/Shimano-CS-HG5...

13 - 15 - 17 - 20 - 24 - 29 - 34 Teeth. Personally, I think this is too wide a range and went with 14 - 32T which has 14 - 16 - 18 - 21 - 24 - 28 - 32 and does not have quite as big a jump between the gears.

Howdy... all rear derailleurs need a hanger. You can buy bolt-on hangers if you don't already have one on your frame. Inespensive, but likly to break if you do a lot of rough riding. I'm not sure but I think this one will only accomodate up to about a 37 tooth chain ring. Check on Shimano's site though. My own rear cassettes only fo up to either 37 or 39 teeth.

This is a Freewheel. It mounts onto a rear hub with threads. I am not familiar with cassettes but I don't think this will work. I don't have the bike with me at home to measure but I believe it is wider than a 5 speed. The bike I used it on is a Vitus with 126mm rear spacing that I upgraded from a 6 speed to a 7 speed with 7 speed index shifters and the frame with luck had enough clearence. I hope some information will be helpful with your upgrade. Good luck!

You need to find out the treading type for your bottom bracket for your 2005 XCL access frame, threading type and length of the original Bottom bracket.Research the original spechs from the manufacturer, owners manuals and repair manuals are good sources and then come back with a specific question.The Shimano UN55 comes in different lengths but I think they are all 48mm English thread but I could be wrong on that too, do your homework !

why would you want a 7 speed mega range freewheel on a 6 speed bike?the 7th oversized mega cog wont even be accesable with 6 speed shifters and derailleur,why not get a 6 speed mega freewheel(shimano MF-TZ20 tourney 14-34 tooth 6 speed),make sure your shifters and derailleur are mega compatable!!!!!!!

Depends on the existing deraileur, things like long cage and shifter components being shimano compatible have to be there. Chain length may need to be addressed.

The XT M770 hub is compatible with 8/9/10 speed cassettes, both Shimano and SRAM. I own the same wheel but using a SRAM PG970 9-Speed cassette.

I used a 7 speed cassette on mine. I had to adjust the spacing on the axle. I took the old axle spacers from my old rim and transferred them over.

The short answer is, yes. Shimano spacing is different for 6-11 speed cassettes, but cable pull ratio is the same for 6-9 speed. If you want indexing to work, you can only use an 8 speed cassette along with any 6-9 speed derailleur (except 8 speed Dura Ace derailleurs. This is info from my LBS and Sheldon Brown.) That said, in friction mode, you can use ANY brand or model derailleur set, because you stop the shifter when it engages the desired cog, not the other way around. It takes some fishing to get used to it, but after a while you will find each ratio as easily as if they were indexed using your own muscle memory. If you happen to find an old Positron or AX rear derailleur, you could conceivably have 5 speed indexing, because in those models the index feature was in the derailleur rather than in the shifter. Some other models for other people reading this: The model you need for Suntour indexing is the 6 speed Accushift "barcon" For all 7 speed Shimano, use the SL-BS50* For 8 speed Dura Ace, use the SL-BS50-8* or SL-BS77 For all 9 speed Shimano, use the SL-BS77 For all 10 speed Shimano, use the SL-BS79 *These frequently are sold NOS but ship in the wrong packaging so inspect these carefully before mounting to make sure you have the correct ones. The shift lever model is usually embossed on the rubber boot. In fact, the SL-BS64 kit usually ships in an SL-BS50 box, but don't be alarmed.

Yes. This is not a whole hub. If you have a 125 spaced shimano hub. This will replace the freehub body. You can run your 7 speed cassette on a modern hub however with a spacer. So really you only need this if your frame/wheel requires a 125mm spaced back end.

I don't know -- but the Alex R450 is compatible with 8-speed Shimano cassettes. I am using it with a 7-speed cassette and a spacer.

My chain rings are 22,32,42 and I find I can go anywhere I want with my 8-speed 32-12, which is no longer made. You may find it on eBay. By the way, if you have a rear wheel with an 8-speed cassette, you can use a 7-speed cassette with a spacer to replace the spot where first gear usually is. Sometimes the 7-speed cassette will have rivets that stick out but they can be ground flat and work fine. All my bikes have 8-speed hubs, so I can use either 8-speed or 7-speed with the spacer. I don't like 9-speed and up because of the narrower chain.

It depends on your chain, the brand and and how old that 7 speed cassette is. The width of chains have changed over time and just installing new gears can be problematic as a consequence of both the change in chain link sizes as well as the consequent changes in derailleurs. Hard to say. It will probably work in a pinch but the only way to be sure that your entire drivetrain works in harmony, you kinda need a complete set (cassette, chain, chainrings and sometimes even derailleurs and shifters if you're changing component generations).

well, I think so man, it fits a 11-34 T cassette, in my case my bike brang a shimano one, check your cassette before, but it should be right.......

you can find answers to compatibility issues at the shimano website. you will have to do some searching because there's a lot of data and it will take a moment but you can find it there. i'm not that familiar with all shimano components to give a reliable response.

First, it's a 12-30 not 11-30 and I have used this cassette with both a 105, RD 5700 short cage and an Ultegra RD 6700 short cage derailleur. That said, it is not compatible according to Shimano. I have read a great deal about longer B tension screws, frame geometry and hanger length but have done nothing beyond fitting the cassette and cranking the B tension to get about 1/4" (6mm) clearance between the jockey roller and cogs. If you're switching from an 11-28 the chain will probably be long enough but if you current biggest cog is 25 or smaller you will probably need a new chain. Personally, I have had trouble installing the Shimano connecting pins but have had no problem using the KMC quick links with Shimano chains.

All 6, 7 & 8-speed rear gears/cassettes use the same 3/32" chain width. Chains are shipped with enough length for almost any bike. You need to cut them to length with a chain breaker tool (which you really should buy if you don't have one). Be sure to leave enough length to allow shifting into the largest front chainring and the largest rear cog/gear at the same time (even though that's not a very good gear to ride in).
