Cassettes arrived just over three weeks after being told they where on there way. Was starting to get nervous after reading so much negativity of postal times and service from bike inn. Sunrace are generally seen as a cheaper brand than Shimano. In this case that is definitely so in the finish. The sunrace is a far rougher looking cassette than the Shimano 9 speeds I've used in the past. Weather that plays out in durability or quality of shifting is yet to be seen. Primarily why I bought the sunrace is the ratio sizing. Sunrace is 11,13,15,18,21,24,28,32,36. While Shimano has a choice of two....11,13,15,17,20,23,26,30,36 or 12,14,16,18,21,28,32,36. Basically sunrace give u the best of both the Shimano pair. Easy at one end with 36 or hard the other at 11. But even the lead up ratios are better. I do a lot of loaded touring and found the Shimano 12-36 run out of cogs with just a bottom of 12 but the 11-36 have to much of a jump from 26,30,36. The sunrace is steadier...28,32,36. All that's left now is to chuck them on and test durability. By the way....I didn't buy the black phosphate cassette. I ordered them from from another place. Far to rough . Would imagine this would not help with gear changing. I'm giving them 4 stars instead of five because the finish is no where near as slick as the Shimano and they're a bit heavier. but worthy of 4 stars for the ratios sunrace offer that I was looking for.
