Don't you need to start with a complete cassette, so that when the individual sprockets wear out you can replace them? I don't think they're meant to be replacement items for rehabilitating worn Shimano cassettes. Actually, given cost and availability, rather than rehabbing an 8, wouldn't you be better off switching to 7 speed? > Ti is a more expensive > material and more difficult to machine than steel, and the volume this > vendor is producing is a fraction of Shiimano, so I can see $20 for a > cog.

AFAIK the life span of Shimano Dura Ace cassetted with Ti sprockets is dramatically shorter than steel Ultegra level cassettes. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
