    Just getting a new cassette for my new wheels. The bike has 105 components, and have been happy with them.

    Is there any real benefit to justify the small price difference for an ultegra cassette?

    I noticed some remarks about compatibility issues with the Ultegra cassette, cant remember the source but maybe Wiggle or CRC buyers comments. So I decided the 105 was the better option. They are very close in weight also.

    There should be no compatibility issues. 10 speed shimano will all work together.
