how does that even happen? never seen a cassette lose teeth before.

 

[MrKnifey]

My cassette is worn.. its £360 for a new one.. No ta!

 

[Begbie]

Can get a whole x11 shimano XT for less than that!

 

[matt_fsr]

CRC have it for £210 - But it's less than a year old, so I've emailed YT basically asking for a replacement!

I don't mind shipping them the old one. It's the first time I've ever seen broken teeth, but 2 off from different rings must indicate poor quality of the steel used, so hopefully I'll get a new one under warranty.

What is it? Titanium?!

 

[booyaka]

£210 for a cassette????

£360 for another one???

What are you people on about?!?!?!?!

Did I miss the bit when cassettes used to be around £50-£75?

Mental aint it! No thanks.
Quite happy with my SLX cassette + range expander for ~£60 all in
even if i had money to burn I couldnt see myself paying that when i can get comparable performance at a fraction of the price.

SRAM XX1 for ya :/

Have you tried sourcing one from the US? Must be cheaper over there.

I have SRAM X1 so I think I'm also in for a shock

EDIT: Quoted the wrong post.

Just stick a shimano xt 11 on, £75. Yt will tell you its a consumable most likely and try to teach you to shift better

Not even sure its for sale in the UK yet, is it?

Only price I can see from the states about £460, for the whole groupset. CRC have the cassette for £63, which is great considering the cost of a 10spd XT cassette and expander is about the same if you use the superstar expander. If you go hope etc, then your talking £20 extra than the 11spd stuff.

Totally makes sense for me to upgrade my whole drivetrain to save £20 every year or so

Got my last XX for £40

Stunningnestest bike, ever made?

Mini Summum (new Dune)

 

[PinkFloyd]

Found a new track in the local woods, took a quick video but came out bad quality once uploaded to youtube. It was super slippery but should be beast in the dry

Balls. I meant to quote MrKnifey's post about the XX1

 

[MrKnifey]

[rhysduck]

Lovely looking track that! That's local to me and you ?
