Got it for Xmas to go 1x10 not fitted it yet and am thinking of sending it back to upgrade to a HG81 or XT.

HG62 isn't SLX, HG81 is SLX.

AND MADE OF STEEL

Even half of a Dura Ace or XTR cassette is made of steel! Shock Horror! ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

But what Mister P says... HG62 is basically 10spd Deore. HG81 is SLX, then you've got XT above that (gains an ally lockring to lose about 15g over SLX), then mega bucks XTR.

Hmm on the CRC plastic bag it states (hg62 SLX) but it looks nothing like my old 9speed one.

I think the sweet spot between price and weight is SLX (HG81).

I'd personally swap it.

Looks like Santa has been on an economy drive. He's bought you Deore.
