Overall Product Rating 5 / 5
Good quality

I recommend this product
ConsOne day they will stop making them.
ProsGood quality, compatible with wide range of setups
Bought to replace a broken Ultegra RD-6700, this 105 mech works flawlessly with Ultegra shifters and cassette. Shame to have to drop down a groupset level but in the real world I can't tell any difference in shifting quality. Jockey wheels are maybe slightly noisier, compared to the ceramic bearings of Ultegra, but that's it. If this is compatible with your setup then you can't go wrong with one of these. Long may Shimano keep making them, and keep our 10-speed bikes on the road!

Can I use a Tiagra ST-4600 R shifter with an RD-5701 derailleur?
By

My ST-5600 right shifter is not working correctly.
Yes the 4600 group set will work with the 5700 group set. SK 11/04/24
Will this rear mech work with ultegra rd6600 shifters

I am looking at changing my rear cassette to a 32t and currently have an ultegra rd6600 ss rear mech. Will the 105 5701 Derailleur 10 Speed GS work with my current ultegra rd6600 shifters?
Hi
Thank you for your enquiry. Yes, this rear derailleur will work with your ST-6600 shifters as they are both 10 speed & have the same shift pull.
Kind Regards. JP 02/02/24
Wishing to replace RD6600, to widen gear range.

Will the SS version be compatible with 9spd setup using Dura Ace d/t levers, 52/36 chainset, and 12-29 cassette. I am intending to replace a 13-25 cassette to lower bottom gear, (which would put it beyond the designed range of the Ultegra 6600 mech I currently have had fitted since 2008). Many thanks.
The SS mech will go up to 28T and the GS will accept 32T
Can I replace my Shimano 105 RD5600 with a RD5701 GS? The shifters are SRL 770?
By

I have a Giant Rapid 2 from 2014 with 9-speed Shimano Tiagra. Triple 50/39/30 chainset and 11-28 teeth rear cassette.
Is this compatible with above ?
If yes, would I need the short or medium version or would either fit ?
Thank you for your enquiry, yes it will be fine, for a triple you will need a medium version

Triple set up
By
13 Dec 2020
I'm building up a tourer using a triple set up. I have 105 levers and 105 chainset 30-39-50. I'd like to use a 105 rear mech and cassette. Could you advise which would give me the greatest range please ? 10 speed. Thank you.
Any 10 speed 105 Long Cage (GS) rear mech will suit- the maximum sprocket size of the cassette will be dictated by the specific model and variant of derailleur you choose.

Hope this helps

Is this compatible with a Shimano Tiagra ST-4700 front derailleur and Shimano Tiagra ST-4703 shifters?
No, 4700 is different to earlier 10 speed, you HAVE to use Shimano Tiagra RD-4700 10 Speed Rear Derailleur - GS / Medium Cage (SJS Cycles part number : 41213) RT 27/04/2020
Compatible with 3x 8-speed?
By
10 Nov 2019
Would this be compatible with older sora shifters, 8-speed?
Yes, any shimano REAR mech will work with any Shimano shifters up until road to 10 and MTB to 9 speed except Shimano Tiagra 4700 10 speed shifters and rear derailleur
1 * 10 transmission
By

I have a 1 * 10 transmission. In front there are 44 teeth, in the back there is a cassette (11 * 32)
Which rear derailleur is suitable for me SS or GS ?
For 32t cassette you need GS.

I have a 50 34 crankset and would like an 11 34 cassette to give a slightly lower gear than my 11 32 . I see this is technically out of the range of this mech. Will it work if I avoid cross chaining ? Thanks
I would not risk it, although marked as 9s the Shimano Deore RD-M591 9 Speed Top Normal Rear Derailleur - Silver - SGS / Long Cag (SJS Cycles part number : 39048) will work with 10s STI and cassette.
Can I use this with my older 105 RD 5700 GS Shifters ?
By
03 Sep 2018
I have a 2013 bike that came with (as far as I can tell) earlier 10 speed 105 RD 5700 GS. It was specced at the time with a 11-30T rear cassette. Can you confirm the older levers pull ratio will be compatible with this newer rd 5701 derailleur ?
Yes, all 10 speed Shimano components are compatible except Tiagra 4700.

Thanks
Is this compatible with a 7-speed cassette?
By
18 Aug 2018
specifically, the Shimano CS-HG200 12-32T you are currently advertising. Front spread is 52-39. Thanks
No this will not work with 7 speed.

Thanks
Can I use this with Ultegra 10 spd levers ?. Would buy Ultegra but can't wait for stock arrival.

Want to run 34-52. 12 up 32 cassette.
Hi there,

Yes this will work perfectly with 6700 shifters.

Thanks
Can I use this part with a 52-32 triple chainring set and 9 speed 11-32 cassette?
By
08 Oct 2017
Hi,

Your set up would be beyond the range that Shimano recommend using this derailleur for so although this does not mean a straight no it won't work it will just mean that if you do use it on such a wide range you will need to be very careful about your gear choices and not cross the chain to much.

Thanks.
