Review on 🚴 SRAM Eagle XG-1299 11-50 12-Speed Cassette - Brilliant Gold: Unbeatable Performance for Enhanced Cycling Experience by Sean Garrison

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Make sure your wheels have the XD driver installed.

This cassette is a work of art, milled from one piece and coated with TiN. There are several options to outfit your bike with the Eagle such as: B. a nickel plated and black block and a GX cassette (it's made of stamped and pinned gears but since I built the "road" wheelset I wanted it to match my XX1 Gruppo. Super quiet and after 160 miles I don't see any wear not even marks but we'll see how it holds up with more miles on the bike I have yet to use a 50 tooth sprocket as I have a 32 tooth sprocket for durability of the individual alloy component I can't say anything about the cassette.

Pros
  • Pretty packaging
Cons
  • Don't Remember
