Thanks for all the information..
To answer Bills' question , I'm really just trying to maximize range while
keeping the quasi-single chainring up front. I believe I could achieve
what I need with just getting a smaller chainring but I do find myself in
the 40/12 often and I don't want to

You win that bet. Thanks for correction. Foiled again by fumbling fat
fingers.

That sure depends a lot on the terrain, how much and how fast it
changes, and how
Back to the OP. What problem are you looking to solve by getting a new
cassette? What are you running up front?

I have to say that I sit on both extremes of the cadence spectrum, since
(a) most of my riding on pavement is fixed gear, and (b) I hate shifting
only to find that the gear I've shifted to is not exactly the one I wanted.
(But I'm someone who does obsess about gear ratios for fixed gear
"I does make me curious what others may think is the ideal spacing between

I've never run more than 8 (and always a triple), so pretty far behind
current thinking. For general use & touring, 2
Thanks Phil
I'm glad to hear first hand experience.
I don't typically ride in a manner where I'm trying to keep a constant
cadence...I feel like I can make adjustments when approaching a climb.
Your feedback is very helpful nonetheless.

If you like to keep your cadence going up hills, I would try the 9 speed or
even the 10 speed made by Sunrace.
I had the IRD 8 speed wide low cassette for help with climbing. However, it
didn't help as when I'd go uphill, I would lose cadence because of the
spacing, Climbing got more miserable
