Review on 🚴 SRAM PG1170 11-Speed Cassette: Optimal Performance and Durability for a Smooth Ride by Carlos Chan

Revainrating 4 out of 5

SRAM quality is cheaper than Red

Force quality cassette. I use this on my 2x Shimano GRX gravel bike. Shimano says 34t is the max size you can use with a medium GRX derailleur, but I had no problem getting this 36t to work. This is Shimano's standard spline system for road bikes and fits 10 and 11 speed hubs. Shifts well and seems like it will last a while. I paired it with a SRAM chain and a Quarq crank for crisp shifting. 11-36 combined with 2x in 46-34 gives me serious gear for gravel climbing and more range than 1x.

Pros
  • Enjoyable
Cons
  • Volume
