I want to upgrade my 2022 Allez from Claris to Shimano 105

4 min read

Asked by: Rachel Pervis

Can I replace Claris with 105?

Overall most people will not make a jump from Claris to 105 because the costs usually end up being almost the same price as 50% or more of the value of the bike. Now 105 to Ultegra/Dura-Ace is more common and cost effective (e.g. As I wear out components in the drivetrain I am replacing them to Ultegra).
