[RBW] Re: RBW Cassettes from IRD
A cheaper alternative to the Harris cassette is Shimano sells an 11-30 9 speed cassette: http://www.wiggle.com/shimano-hg50-9-speed-cassette/ For $18, it is a pretty good deal. But two things about them. First, there's that 11t small cog that many don't like. Second, I found the quality of Shimano HG50 to be mediocre. It just doesn't shift as crisp as my ultegra/dura ace cassettes. Still, for $18, it is definitely worth a try. Good Luck!

IRD made Riv spec ones. Not sure they're still in production, but I haven't heard anything to indicate they canned them. Probably just long lead times are iffy forcasting. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.

Thanks for the replies and the lead to Soma & IRD. I knew about the Harris Ultegra's but thought they were high priced. Compared to the upper level IRD ($90) they are not. I have enough to go on. Did Rivendell just sell certain IRD's or did IRD make a special one for RBW???

Looks like Soma has the 12-32. According to IRD website, they are no longer making the 12-32, only 12-30 and 12-34. I need to know such things as I just rebuilt my 20 year old MTB 9 speed!
