    Please let me know any questions you have on this item or configurations.... They do make it for 10 speed and 11 speed bikes as well...... I was very happy with this cassette and the options they give to riders who are looking for a specific gearing. Shifting quality in the stand and adjustment was very very simple. I am looking forward to installing this on my dream build bike and revealing this project to you al very soon :)))

      I don't trusts this type of cassettes, shifting goes amazing in the stand but as soon as you go out and put some force in the AL cogs between 8 and 11 (the big ones) everything goes south, sometimes the chain starts to jump between cogs (without shifting) and because the big cogs are made from aluminium alloy some teeths start to bend with enough time. Take in consideration that i say this from previous experiences (different manufacturers, same design construction and idea), but idk, maybe this company found the holy grail of aluminium cassettes

    Even though the Presta cassette might distribute the load across the whole of the cassette, it still seems as if the brunt of would be taken at the contact points on the freehub body and so instead of gouging in certain rings you'll just have it on the ends instead. Let us know how that works as you use it for a while. I'm interested to see if that is any better or worse. Nice concept and it looks super light.

    I’ve had a Prestacycle cassette on my Winspace SLC 2.0 for 2 years now. It shifts and performs really well. The one negative have is that it tends to be noisy, but I’ve never had another cassette on the bike to compare to. I had a SRAM Red 22 mechanical groupset using the SRAM Red 11 speed chain.
    Other than that it’s been good.

    @costelloandsilke7321 5 місяців тому +2

    As per other comments below - a cassette with two points of engagement will not disperse force across the freehub - it will just concentrate the force at the two points of engagement. However, where a monobloc cassette has a potential advantage is that it is more torsionally stiff so there is less potential for gouging from individual cogs twisting under load and eating into the freehub. That problem is worse with cheaper cassettes which tend to be less accurately machined and can result in individual cogs both twisting and moving back and forth on and off load on the freehub.

    I had used one on 11 speed, exact same company and design with durace derailleur and found it to be first and foremost very loud on shifting and loud in general because the whole thing is one piece and vibration from chain resonates throughout. Also there are no rubber bands in between cogs to improve acoustic performance of the chain too. It really got on my nerves after a week of riding even waxed chain wont help. Its like a tractor/helicopter sound continuously 😂

  • @joebloodworth

    Just spent the day trying to dial my 12sp on the r9200. As commenters above have stated, I had the same experience with shifting. If you’re a recreational rider, sure it shifts fine. If you’re racing, not so much. It gets close to it, but not quite. Shifts better than an eThirteen I had once that was marketed as being GRX compatible but as others stated, it lags in either the top few or bottom few gears depending on which one is dialed in. On top of that, the bottom few cogs may be the culprit as in order to get them dialed, one of the teeth lacks a slant that HG cassettes have and it ever so slightly catches on the bigger cog causing a click repeating every turn. It never quite skips in the stand but there are too many wrecks in races due to gears skipping and I don’t plan on being the one in order to save 49 grams.

    Nice Video, the fact about the better options for the gear ratio and the weight saving is true, even a dura ace cassette seems heavy. Tried the same one from E Dubbied but in the end it is everytime the Recon cassette, just other name depends on the country you buy it. My expierence was that the shifting against dura ace RD and Cassette is noticable much worse. In the bike stand was it fine like in your video but outside on the road the shifting not perfect in comparision to Shimano. In end the 60 gramms over the Dura Ace was not worth it and tried to set it better up but no chance. Maybe i was just unlucky or not talented enought dont know. Would like to hear the feedback for riding the cassette outdoor.
    In the end i stick with drivetrain components from Shimano, for me it is the best and a few gramms less are not worth it giving up shifting quality.

    Have two of them , was the only solution to a worn freehub body . Once freehub body is worn on one cog they are by default out of mesh with the cogs one speed up or down . Fantastically light and amazing manufacturing. There was only one issue , they are unfortunately very loud on the bike , not sure if it is because it’s a cone and resembles a speaker ? Not sure but they are noticeably much louder than a DA , so if peaceful bike rides are your aim , these might not be for you . If you don’t care about sound , these are tight,solid, and fast , might even give better power transfer as the freehub body is not so torqued out on force offset from center ?

Then you get get this CNCed cassette for just 30g less but guaranteed worse shifting experience.

    18T has been the workhorse gear on my blocks back since 8 speed gears were the hot new thing, to the extent that I used to run 13-21 and 12-19 cassettes exclusively in my racing days. Then with 9 speed 12-21 and 10 speed 12-23. Can't get my head round why Shimano thinks they can get away with having cassettes that don't have them. Maybe it's just to sell more cassettes. Still don't understand why normal dude riders think they need an 11T.

    I really wished you started with the price. $240 is way too much, especially for a risky option. The whole point of not buying from Sram or Shimano is because of their outrageous prices.

      It has more contact area for the entire cassette than an individual cog of the Shimano cassette.
      Note that on the Shimano cassette the load does not distribute to other cogs; so the contact stress of the Shimano cassette ends up being greater; this results in the small gouges in the cassette driver when using the Shimano cassette.

      you don't need teflon powder, the difference is marginal. What you should do is buy three chains, degrease and wax them. Then rotate the chains every 250-400 km, depending on the weather and use. Rewax all three chains when thee third one starts squeaking.

I moved it closer than the shimano. Very close 3-4mm away from the 34t cog. Shifts very well now. 95% as fast as DA. Once in a great while its slightly slower shifting in one or two cogs than DA but other than that all good. Cassette is a beautiful piece of machinery.

    @joystation1 5 місяців тому

    I don't accept that a cassette that drives through only two points of contact will leave less bite marks on the freehub splines than a cassette with 10, 11 or 12 cogs will. The cogs on a normal cassette only drive into the freehub splines when that particular cog is selected (except cogs 1,2 & 3 which are mounted on the same but 3x thicker spider), with a one piece cassette, every cog transmits pedalling force to the freehub splines, whichever cog is selected, the one piece cassette is in permanent contact with the freehub via 2 points on contact. I don't grease freehub splines, grease only attracts dirt which turns the grease into a grinding paste. Both cassettes shifted good but in the workstand non-load bearing test I think the Shimano was fractionally crisper. My 2 cents worth.

    • @Raytrac3d
      @Raytrac3d 5 місяців тому

      I have a similar cassette from a different brand and those two contact points are much wider than individual cogs, meaning that the the force is distributed across wider area significantly reducing the pressure on the freehub body which completely eliminates bite marks (at ~2.5k kilometers in my case at least).
