Im running a 1x9 set up on my current bike with 34t upfront and a 11-34 cassette and wanted 10 speed due to the fact the cassette's run 11-36 which would be slighly easier with the 36t , but now I have seen on CRC a 9 speed 12-36 cassette and this would save alot of money . Has anyone got one as I was told they dont exist !

They do exist. Shimano market it as a 29er cassette.

Apparently you can mod the cassette and swap rings around to get an 11-36 if you want. It's not light but then, it could be pretty useful.

IIRC it's not a carrier-type cassette so verboten for Pro 2 ally hubs. You could of course ignore this.

The Shimano one is only Deore level so it is not light.

Yeah, but check your rear mech for clearance on the 36.
