Component Deals & Selection / Re: SROAD lightweight cassettes
« on: July 09, 2024, 11:37:56 PM »
Maybe they are better on 11 speeds. On my 105 di2 (12speeds) it was not shifting right. I was able to return the cassette for a refund. I have done a couple of ride on the original 105 cassette and everything is back to normal (after few adjustment).

It seems like Goldix is not the one, at least with di2. I don't know if it's the spacing between the cog that is off or if it's the tooth profile. It indeed look very different from the Shimano. Now thinking of getting the dura ace to save some weight.

The only appeal of the Spedao cassettes is that they offer bigger range HG/XD cassettes. At this point for road cassettes, I would go with the Goldix/ZTTO lightweight steel cassettes with the beefier torx screw cog spider.



I just tried the Goldix 12 speeds 11-34T on a Shimano 105 Di2. First it shift poorly, it makes your Shimano shift like a SRAM. Second it's impossible to index properly. If I was micro adjusting to have it quiet in the top range, it was shifting poorly in the low range or simply not shifting. I did check my hanger with the DAG-2.2 and everything is straight. I'm back on my heavy 105 cassette for now, but it shift smooth.

When you compare the tooth profile of the Goldix vs Shimano it's very different. The design Shimano use is much more complex.

Interesting about the Zrace. Anyone have tried the rotor from that brand? They are new so there is no review yet.
