I have a Triban RC100 that I wish to convert to 11 speed.

I got as far as choosing the Sensah Srx Pro and the Shimano RS100 wheels. But got stuck after that.

Which cassette would be compatible with both and what chain length would I need? I am looking for something that gives me some offroad climbing gears.

Thank you for your help.

    Thank you for your awnser, the reason I asked is because apperently the road and mtb cassettes are different length.Due to these types of complications I got lost.

    I just saw for example that the group set might not be compatible because they are for mechanical disk brakes and only certain rim brakes are compatible. So I might be even further from getting the parts than I thought.

      Yup, with the recent MTB groupsets (and some gravel groupsets, aka “mullet” setups) chains need to have more links compared to road chains to cover the big ratios in their biggest cogs (50-52 teeth vs. 34-36 at most for road bikes) - add to that that MTB chains may not be compatible with road groupsets and viceversa. But if you check the info available for your groupset and your cassette you’ll find what chains are compatible with it.

      I can’t tell what makes a groupset compatible or not with rim brake setups or disc brake setups, but one of the perks of Shimano is that is so widely available almost everywhere it’d be quite rare not to find documentation or a local bike shop where they can tell you what would be the best choice for your setup
