Shimano Cassettes

Shimano cassettes are a great example of the exceptional quality the brand has to offer. Their cassettes are not just the most reliable on the market but also very long-lasting. Whether you are looking for smoother gearing at high speeds or strong components for off-road mountain biking, Shimano cassettes are your perfect choice. You can find a wide variety of Shimano cassettes at Crooze – discover Alivio, XTR, Deore, Acera, Tourney, Tiagra and many more popular models for your road bike, mountain bike or commuter bike in Australia. 

High-performing bike cassettes for all types of riding styles.

It is an important part of your bicycle’s drivetrain. Therefore it is important to choose one that will be compatible with your riding environment. If you enjoy exploring a wide variety of terrains, on and off the road, you will need a bike cassette with more gearing options. That way your electric mountain bike or regular MTB will be able to cope with the varying terrains - from steep technical climbs that require low gears to fast and longer downhills. 

The MTB cassettes typically differ from road bike cassettes by having bigger gaps between each sprocket.

Meanwhile, if you are a professional road bike rider, where speed and flatter roads are your preferred riding style, you will want to choose a cassette with a narrower jump between gears for smoother and more precise gearing. These types of cassettes will also help improve your cadence. 

A great cassette option for aggressive trail riding is Shimano SLX CS-M7000 Cassette 11-40 11-Speed. This model is an 11 speed cassette with a lightweight spider construction and a wide range of gear steps that are excellent for 1x and 2x MTB drivetrains. It comes with HYPERGLIDE technology and Rider Tuned gear steps that optimise riders' cadence control across different mountain terrains as well as offering efficient and smoother gearing capabilities. You can’t go wrong with a Shimano’s M7000 cassette. So, hit the slopes and power through the roughest of trails with confidence.

For road bike riding we recommend Shimano Tiagra/Deore CS-HG500 Cassette 11-25 10-Speed. The HG500 10 speed cassette provides you with versatile gear options that perfectly support you on the road. It's sprocket is also incredibly lightweight allowing smooth gear steps. It has a SHIMANO HG system and a lock in performance, providing you with a cassette that has a robust adjustability and durable construction. It is compatible with bike chains like CN-HG500 / HG 10-speed / HG-X 10-speed. 

High quality bicycle cassettes let you focus more on the road ahead, instead of mechanical friction and interrupted gearing. The cassette may seem like a minor part on your bicycle, but it is definitely a fundamental component, so it is important to choose one that is of high-quality and will best optimise your riding performance. 

Shimano cassettes are engineered with riders in mind, which you can see by their high-quality materials and advanced technology that make them last longer and withstand the demands of different riders. Each model comes with unique advanced design and technology to best suit your riding style.
