My Levo has been mostly commuting in recent months as my singlespeed hardtail has taken over proper MTB duties. Consequently I’ve worn out the smaller sprockets and barely been onto the big ones.
The current cassette is SLX 11-46 M7000. (11-13-15-17-19-21-24-28-32-37-46). My guess is it’s the four or five smallest that have suffered all the wear.
Ideally I’d swap like for like because then I know it’ll be perfect but it’s pretty hard to find single sprockets. I tried a cheaper non-Shimano cassette earlier this year and the combined torque of me and the motor wrecked the teeth in about 100 miles, so Shimano’s harder teeth are worth having!
Can I use any Deore, SLX, XT or XTR 11 speed sprockets? What about 11 speed road sprockets?
Theoretically, the 11/13/15T sprockets for SLX/XT cassettes are available in the UK, but only the 11T has an ETA - Feb 2023.
Hope you get something sorted.
Can't comment on compatibility but I use XT 11-46 11 speed and have had decent success with AliExpress sprockets.

Is that on normal or ebikes?
The cassette I destroyed in a week or so was a Microshift 11s one and they seem fine with human power according to reviews but not when that power is doubled or more.
I got a 13t from here a couple of weeks ago for my sister's e-bike because she'd mullered it, dialling up the assist rather than using her gears on a lower assist.

I’ve also replaced the small shimano sprockets on an ebike using individual parts from Ali express
