You got one then? whats it going on and a full report please.
I'm thinking, why pay 170 quid on a full 1x11 drive train if this new cassette can do the same job?

Fitted it the other week mate chain seems a bit flimsy the other thing is chain line you can't pedal backwards first two Gears it will drop back down but might be able to do away with that if I remove the spacer on the drive side and fit it to the n/s .. To be fair made no difference to me as I was using a 1x10 with 42 expander mate and never had a problem with it dropping down gears . and was running a 30t on front but gone 32 now as I had one in the man cave .. And the 30t was fked .. So feels a little harder on climbs . |

So you have to have a special chain then? I thought it was just a cassette swap? shame if it doesn't work well as that would have saved about a 100 squid on a full 1x11!

I'm quite intrigued by this 1x10, 11x42 cassette.  You mean one of these pez I just been looking at them and wondering what the gearing set up would be like looking at ratio between the 11 speed I have and one of these not a lot in it . |

I though you still had to swap the mech and shifter to match the cassette?

Oh right - not a true 1x10 then? so you still need a shifter and mech? FFS might as well just go full 1x11 then.

Also for the weight weenie it's lighter than the xt m8000 and forget to clarify it works with standard mech and shifter. Personally I have a xtr shifter and slx mech, mech will be replaced with xt when it fails/breaks.

Brilliant Kirky cheers - that's what I was on about - think I confused Marmite! If that works on a standard 10 speed chain and shifter and mech - no need to bother with going full 1x11! Keep me updated on how it goes - did you set it up yourself? easy to do or a shop job?

Yes I assume the new wide range 10 speed cassette will work with a medium rear mech? that correct?
I will buy the new cassette a new 10 speed chain and perhaps treat meself to one of them thar new fangled oval rings - a 32t jobbie. Be a load cheaper than going 1x11.

Keep me updated on how it goes - did you set it up yourself? easy to do or a shop job? I replaced a SRAM cassette with an hive 42 expander with a praxis which was only 40T that just needed the b tension dropping back a bit but the cable tightening a touch, the sunrace just went on and wound the B tension out a tad. Easiest ever. The cassette seems really well made and is spread over 3 alloy spiders so its not as fiddly as some.
The step up from 9 to the pussy cog is much smoother than any cassette/expander combo I've tried. I've been running various cassette pussy cog combinations for three years now after changing each of the bikes that didn't come that way. in fact I don't think ive ever had to fiddle with a front mech other than removing it from a bike.

Great, I'll go with the Sunrace I think, I'm never having a front mech/shifter again, pain to clean, unnecessary clutter and weight, just no need.
