5.0 out of 5 stars 9-speeds and a really good wide ratio..., June 27, 2011

This cog set is 9 speeds, and goes from 11 teeth for the top gear to 34 teeth for the low gear. It's a nice wide ratio to cover everything from steep hillclimbs to high-speed downhills. Watch out for clearance to the derailleur wheel, as 34 teeth is very close to the max for deore shifters. Works flawlessly for me.

4.0 out of 5 stars Shimano cassette, September 11, 2011

This is a entry level cassette, so don't expect light weight. There are lighter cassettes on the market. If weight isn't so important however, this unit is strong and durable. I use it on a touring bike, shifts good, works good, lasts long, and doesn't cost an arm and leg. If you are using your bike for racing, or looking for performance..... spend more to get lighter weight parts.... this cassette is HEAVY. All steel, no aluminum carrier or light weight parts here. That said, for my use, it's fine. If I ever wear it out, I'll buy another.

Seems to work fine. Not super light, but I am a weekly rider and works fine for me. Bike does not slip out of gear anymore like with my old worn out one, so that is a plus.
