• use SRAM cassettes instead of Shimano, they have much more linear ratio gaps

    I've just bought a couple of SRAM cassettes (fucking SRAM!) because (I think) they are all steel, whereas the Shimano cassettes have the two lowest gears in aluminium which wear out before the rest of the cassette.

    If anyone knows where to get the lowest three cogs on a Shimano MTB cassette as a spare part, I'm all ears.

    Download the EV PDF, make a note of the part number, order from any LBS who deals with Madison, discover that the cost is more than a whole cassette🙂

  • Maybe. Ideally, I'd like to find someone who's trashed a middle cog that's replacing a whole cassette for the same reason and then piece together a working one.

    Reduce. Reuse. Recycle.
