That's good... Shimano has 11-46 cassette so compatibility is not a question.Yeah it’s a Shimano XT rear mech.
I was looking at the sun race cassette it’s on offer at the moment but don’t have any experience with sun race products so it’s a bit of a gamble!That's good... Shimano has 11-46 cassette so compatibility is not a question.
I run a 11-40 and a 11-46 Sunrace on two of my "analog" bikes and they are great. I don't know how they hold up to the bigger power of an ebike but for the price you cannot really go wrong with them.I was looking at the sun race cassette it’s on offer at the moment but don’t have any experience with sun race products so it’s a bit of a gamble!
You don't need a long cage for 1x with 11-46 the GS is good for that. It has 39T capacity.Good shout, as it has a 42 cassette on already i would’ve thought it is a long cage.
Thanks, I’ve ordered one now with a new chain can’t wait to try it out.I've had two Sunrace 11-42 cassettes and can't speak highly enough of the brand.
The second cassette was sold with the bike, so I can't answer for the durability of that one, but I probably got close to 3,000 miles out of the first. It wasn't the low or high range gears that ultimately spelt the end of the cassette, it was gears six, seven and eight (I can't remember how many teeth on each) The chain started to jump forwards under load, but the teeth didn't even look worn. It was only when using a chainwhip that the reason even showed it self up.
I have read reports of some people saying that they have had chain issues with them, but again, that wasn't my experience. By memory, I used a KMC X10 chain.
