Pros & Cons

Top delivery service

Pros & Cons

Fits perfectly on my Ultegra group

Pros & Cons

Fine, does what it needs to do so far ;-)

Pros & Cons

Good value for money for riding in the mud

Pros & Cons

Cassette as described

With this cassette, I can cycle enough kilometres again!

Pros & Cons

Good cassette that is also reasonably priced!

Pros & Cons

Already placed many cassettes, this one is quite okay.

Pros & Cons

I had hoped that a new derailleur would not be needed, but that turned out to be the case. For a bike with three front chainrings (30-39-50), even the "long cage" derailleur would not be able to shift over this cassette with a 32 sprocket, but that turned out to be not so bad. If the inner adjusting screw is tightened all the way, the derailleur straightens out far enough to grab even the largest, 32, sprocket, without a rattle.

Pros & Cons

Simple but well-made cassette without many bells and whistles. Well made but rather for simple or second wheels

Pros & Cons

Good value for money and very easy to assemble. Cassette is slightly heavier but fine for the sporty bike.

Pros & Cons

I have a lot of experience with road bikes and help a lot of people for free so I know what I am talking about.

Pros & Cons

Lifespan still unknown. Switches fine

Pros & Cons

Pros & Cons

Fine pignon for the recreational climber. Not super light, but solid. Note, for the 32 you need a long-cage derailleur. Fine otherwise. You just have to wonder why Shimano runs this type of pignon with an 11. The category of riders who ride with this are never going to use it. A 12 or even a 13 would be better, keep more options in the important 15-16-17 tooth range.

Pros & Cons

In itself good but you do notice that they are cheap gears. But for the tacx good enough

Most importantly, the fixed seven-piece rear section of this cassette is in one piece this distributes the force on the freewheel much more.

Pros & Cons

Just good product. Good for one season and then change again.

Pros & Cons

Great group, quickly assembled

Pros & Cons

See above

This cassette is easy to assemble and has an excellent price/performance ratio. Disadvantages? Yes, the weight is not optimal compared to the more expensive variants from the Shimano stable.

Pros & Cons

Good product for good price Runs very smoothly
