Sunrace cassettes

[Splatter Paint]

I'd like a shiny chrome / satin finish new 12-28 7-speed cassette for my steed. Are Sunrace cassettes any good?

Thanks

ran one around the Turkey Twizzler this year and nowt bad to report.

Shiny and cheap!

Hmmm - I wouldn't use one. Call me a brand snob, but cassettes need to be Shimano. Sunrace never set up quite as well, and I've seen a few that just don't work properly out of the box, due to poorly made teeth.

I've used one. Works fine with Suntour. If i remember they own Suntour now?

I have used one too. Works just as good as a Shimano.

Currently running a Sunrace 8 speeder and so far so good. Shifting midway up hills and handling dirty conditions pretty well. By comparison ran a Sram cassette and it broke a tooth after only afew months and jumping gears because of it.

I have used 8-speed sunrace cassettes with no noticeable problems. Also use Sram and Shimano. Shimano XTR 8 speeds are rare and too expensive to be grinding away with a chain.

No issues with the 7 speed 12 - 28 I've had on my Explosif for the last 18 months. Shiny. shifts well and a decent price.

I keep them in stock. They work well and are cheaper than Shimano. Not too heavy either.

I am not a snob though.
