Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway Search Forums Show Threads Show Posts Advanced Search Find All Liked Posts Go to Page...

Shimano Acera HG41 8 Speed MTB Cassette | Chain Reaction Cycles The main difference between cassettes are tooth counts, price and weight. Always been more than happy with the cheapest I could find - they seem to last just as long as the pricey ones and work the same.

As has been the advice in the other threads, get what you can find with the tooth count you want. You will not be able to tell a difference, all will work.

How old is the bike, what make and model?

Every cassette is wrong if you need a freewheel. __________________ Bikes: Old steel race bikes, old Cannondale race bikes, less old Cannondale race bike, crappy old mtn bike.

Expensive cassettes are a waste of $$ __________________ Bikes: Old steel race bikes, old Cannondale race bikes, less old Cannondale race bike, crappy old mtn bike.
