[RBW] FYI: Sunrace 8sp cassettes

2018-10-12 Thread Justin, Oakland
For those folks who are both 1x curious and we’d to their 8 speed life take a look at the 8 speed Sunrace 11-40 cassette. I put one on my kid bike because the cost would be $26 for cassette vs $$ for 10sp parts. I had the shifter, derailleur and chain already. The cassette came with a generi

As we graduate to more hauling of stuff and less joyriding I have a 28ish ring on there. As it stands my wife and I aren’t comfortable with riding out of our neighborhood so in order to mileage I have to drive the bike to a place to ride. This avoids most hills so far. Plus I did some pretty imp

Just to follow up on this thread, I picked up the Sunrace 11-40 8 speed cassette and put in on my new Jones. With a longer B tension screw, it shifts OK, but is a bit slow and noisy. I haven't tried it on the trail yet, though... to much rain around these parts. You can see pictures here: https:/

The Road Link is from JGbike and comes with the cassette when ordered from the big A. I have an extra around here if you need it. The derailleur is an M760. Not sure if cage length. -J -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group. To
