Easy installation. Can't wait to try it

The cassette comes without a hanger but that doesn't matter. Easy installation. I can't wait to try it out. Breathe new life into your happy horse.

Pros
  • Ideal for outdoor activities
Cons
  • disappears

Don't: Drive train components

Used on a mountain bike for about a year with less than 150 miles - now the cassette is bent and unusable causing misalignment and noise. Save your money and buy a higher quality product. Worth more money in the long run. 1/5 - disappointed.

Pros
  • Great for me
Cons
  • Some cons

Great buy if you are looking to upgrade your bike

I have to admit I was scared of changing the cassette that originally came with my Trek Marlin 6 bike but I did and am very happy with it. This cassette is very well made and is a great addition to my bike, now I can ride uphill more easily. The price is also very satisfied!

Pros
  • Certified
Cons
  • Good but not great

Better bass handling than standard offerings

I considered a relatively expensive extended range 1x11 replacement before finding an extended ratio cartridge for my 3x8 setup. I was able to try today and I was able to reach the top of the steep hills where I had to stop at least once to catch my breath last week. The ratios are more evenly and conveniently spaced. It was a great addition to my mountain bike.

Pros
  • High test scores for support and durability
Cons
  • No automatic

The cassette was different from the product photo.

Cassette differs from product photo. I returned the product and found that it did not match the product photo. The photo shows a silver-chrome cartridge, they brought a black cartridge. I have brought this to the attention of Revain/Seller. I reordered the cassette to match the cassette/silver/chrome cassette shown in the photo. The replacement product turned out to be wrong, they again sent a black cartridge. If you want a silver chrome cassette, do not order this cassette.

Pros
  • GOLS certificate
Cons
  • Protection

Good part, good price.

This is a great value cassette with excellent shifting and a wide range of gears that works smoothly with SRAM and Shimano chains. It might be a little louder than the super big stuff, but the durability, shifting performance and overall functionality is spot on. I'm not a fun maniac, so I didn't take into account such a factor, anyhow, everything is fine. The wide range is excellent, it fits regular freewheel bodies and is great for general trail use or full bikeload on a fat bike in the snow…

Pros
  • Easy Install
Cons
  • Periodicity
