Hi I have been running 105 on my commuter bike but when it needs replacing i'm thinking of changing to the new sora 3500. now its dropped the thumb lever to shift down I think i'd get on better with it, obviously its only going to be 9 speed but would the performance be really noticably worse?
has anyone used the new groupset?

Are you running 9 speed 105? If so Sora 3500 is basically the same thing.English Cycles V3 | Cervelo P5 | Cervelo T4 | Trek Domane Koppenberg0

no i'm on 10 speed 105 at the minute, but i'm thinking of building a bike as a project and using it for commuting, but to save a bit of cost was thinking of going for the new sora instead of tiagra or 105 but wasnt sure how it would stack up against them. so is the saving in cost going to hamper the performance more than its worth?www.conjunctivitis.com - a site for sore eyes0

Buy second hand, proabably get 10 speed Ultegra 6600 for a similar price.0

It might be better to stick to 10 speed so you can swap chains, cassettes, wheels etc. between bikes if needs be, but other than that I think the new Sora will be fine in terms of performance. Seems there's a not insignificant £80 difference between Sora (£210) and Tiagra (£290) at Ribble.0
