The SRAM PG-1070 Cassette, unlike many competitors' cassettes at this level, is made completely from steel cogs. SRAM’s design wizards, however, have managed to keep the weight of the PG-1070 at just 220 grams, without resorting to Ti cogs at the larger end of the cassette, which wear faster than steel, and contribute to faster overall drivetrain wear.

The PG-1070 will fit on all nine and ten-speed Shimano and SRAM-style splined freehub bodies and is compatible with all 10-speed chains, though SRAM of course states that shifting performance will be optimal with its chains.

I ordered the 11-32 SRAM cassette and got a 12-32. The box is marked 11-32 but it’s actually a 12-32. Returned it and was sent the wrong thing again 12-32 in an 11-32 box. Returned it and ordered another with specific instructions to examine the cassette and yet I received yet another 12-32 in an 11-32 box.

This is a great replacement cassette for the money. I replaced a drivetrain on my friends hardtail and this was the same one that he had on it before.

I like the SRAM cassettes because they shift well. But additionally I like them because they look fantastic!

Got some new wheels to run with Red 10 sp group. The 11-28 worked out well, using a spacer on a DT240 11 speed hub. Didn’t even have to adjust the rear derailleur or shifter.

I run RED on my race bike and when you compare this to a RED cassette there are definite differences, but one of those is also the price. I have run 4 different configurations of this same cassette on various road bikes and tfor the price they deliver great value. The variety in gear ratios (now running an 11-32 on a climber) make this a great addition at a reasonable price point.

I brought the 11-28 ratio because I am tired of swapping the 11-23 for the flat rides and 12-27 for hilly rides. Now I can have the best of both world! Shifting is flawless once you fine tune the RD.

This is a great, reasonably priced cassette. Works as you would expect with super crisp shifts. Also come in a variety of tooth configurations.

Been riding this cassette hard for the last few years. Managed to bend a feed ramp that eventually caused it to fail, but with how many miles I put on it I can't really blame the cassette.

I love the way these cassettes fit together and install with ease. This is well crafted and solid but light. Built up a fat bike in my basement with an SRAM X9/X7 drive train to better mimic the 2014 OEM. Decided to have the shop run the cables so to be sure it will look as good as it shifts although most of the build has been super straightforward. A little nervous leaving it there after babying it the past 2 weeks. UPDATE: after 2 years in snow, mud, rain, and slop, this cassette is going strong, never skips, and is easy to keep clean.

Great range of gears for 52/36 chainrings up front. Can only be outdone by an 11-speed set up. Able to keep same cassette for all types of riding in San Diego/Southern California (flattish coastal rides, 4-hour rides up/down Mt. Palomar, the 100-mile Ride- Around-The-Bear in San Bernardino Mtns, 100-mile Tour de Palm Springs, etc.). Runs quiet and smooth with awesome Shimano reliability. Needed to add 2 links to my chain to clear the upper pulley from the 28 tooth cog and having the B-screw completely turned in as far as it will go (may need to go with longer B-screw). This is on a 6800 Dura Ace rear derailleur.

I put this more all-mountain cassette on a more downhill oriented bike at the suggestion of a buddy that uses it on his bike. He said it would make any pedaling uphill easier, I chose the 11X32 and so far its been great. It's been on my bike a couple weeks and no complaints thus far. May upgrade at some point, but for now it is working well and weight is not a huge issue.

Was referred by a seasoned road bike rider to change into this cassette from what I was riding on. A little bit of changed up learning curve, but now I have great gears for climbing, and other big chain ring gears for flat riding. No problems.

I got caught with a worn out chain that had also worn on my cassette. No bueno but will be sure not to make that mistake again and happy to be able to get a reasonably priced one here. Make sure you understand the different cog sizes and what's right for your bike!

it went on and worked smoothly without any adjustments to the DA der and was quieter than the DA cassette. Life is good.

This is a great product, relatively light and well built. My last one lasted me 6 years and thousands of miles of riding. I find the 11X26 is a good cassette with a compact in the front and I live in the mountains of Colorado, unless you live in a really steep hilly area like Vermont, then in that case go with an 11X28.

I have no complaints on this cassette. it's been a nice upgrade from my 2012 cassette.

Certainly, the more expensive ones are better, but it is hard to justify spending more than 70 bucks on a cassette.
