Apologies for bringing this up. I can feel eyes rolling back, just like when someone asks about tyres, lol!
I'm in the need for two new cassettes, I'm currently sharing a wheelset between my Solaris and Aeris AM9, now I have another wheelset to put on the hardtail.
The cassette I have on the shared wheelset is just about worn out after about 5 years of abuse. Ideally I'd replace like for like, but now I need 2 cassettes and with xmas coming funds are short.
Googling for similar options I've come across a tisoli cassette at Bikeparts UK https://www.bikeparts.co.uk/products/tifosi-11x-hg-cassette-11-46 & a Microfsift cassette at BikeInn https://www.tradeinn.com/bikeinn/en/microshift-xle-cassette/140271075/p?utm_source=google_products&utm_medium=merchant&id_producte=140970248&country=uk&gad_source=1&gclid=Cj0KCQiA0--6BhCBARIsADYqyL-iTk2zD415MK9GtsE-q1faV_zEeChT_YPls5biwW2bJ3ypvkoHWSUaAt3WEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds
Both for less than half price the sunrace cassette.
Anyone have any good experience with the two I've mentioned or any other I should consider?
Thanks in advance!
I probably have at least one Sunrace that's no longer any use to me if you would consider SH? Happy to do photos, it's on the turbo but no 11 speed drivetrain anymore..
Confirmed I have two cassettes surplus, one black one silver. Pm me an email address if you want photos
I’m pretty sure I’ve got a spare 11-46 too that has only done a few miles.
Looks like you might not need it but for reference that particular Microshift cassette (XLE) is very heavy, 710g on my scales, if you care about that sort of thing.
The Tifosi is listed at 560g though I haven't actually weighed one of those.
Slight thread resurrection.
Getting back into biking after a layoff of a few months after a hernia op. Bought a 42t cassette not long ago but my weedy legs are crying out for a 46t (which the 42t replaced).
Anyone else got a ‘spare’ Sunrace going cheapycheap like they did for the OP? 😉
Are you after the XD driver version
bikerevivesheffield - Shimano - cheers
Ah no good sorry
Someone out there is sitting on a nice little stock pile of £10 Deores from the CRC closing down sale and not biting ?
Edit, bloody emoji's have stopped working again.
@rascal I'm thinking of swapping to 12s which would free a part used one up.
Thanks Nixie - just messaged you

I'm always interested in XD ones.
🙂
Arent all these cheap cassettes from different brands just all made the same with some colour difference?
Ive got a Brand X one from the great CRC fire sale and it looks exactly like the majority of the cheap cassettes around with just a different colour carrier and lock ring
Or is there a difference in tooth profiles etc... between all these cheap cassettes?
