Bike Setup: Velo Vie 300 SE, Bontrager wheels, etc., SRAM Rival grouppo
Summary: Rival group is great, except I have the skipping problem in the middle cogs. It skips much less when the chain is sparkling clean, but after a week the skipping returns. Any one have a fix for this? I have had 3 shops look at it and all have scratched their heads. Please help!
Summary: Product worked amazingly at first, but every once in awhile, the chain skips forward if I try and get out of the saddle and sprint. My chain has not even worn out yet, and don't know why this problem persists. I spoke with another rider, and he had the same problem.
Strengths: Long-lasting
shifts great
Weaknesses: chain skipping over the cogs
Similar Products Used: cheap 9spd cassettes on a far older setup
Bike Setup: Raleigh prestige with Force/Red/Rival Mix and Mavic wheels
Summary: This is for the 11-26 Cassette, , i also have the 1090 11-26 Red Cassette to compare with and run the 1090R chain, the 1070 is tad louder and sifting is not as crisp especially on the larger cogs, but it is a great work horse and comes at a fraction of the price and is still lighter than ultegra in the same class. I use it on my Mavic Cosmic Carbon were weight is less of an issue as you will not go for steep grades with deep dish rims.
Strengths: cheap, well built, fairly light,
Weaknesses: not a single piece cassette therefore less stiff

Bike Setup: Giant TCR with SRAM Force & Red and Ksyrium Elite wheels.
Summary: Simply put, this is a great cassette. It's light, easy to clean and the shifts are fast.
Strengths: Light, easy to clean.
Weaknesses: I did have one strange instance of my chain, SRAM 1090, getting stuck at a strange angle. It's only happened once and could be attributed to the SRAM link more than anything else.

Bike Setup: Giant TCR C1, FSA compact bars, compact crank, full Ultegra, Rido saddle, Neuvation wheels.
Summary: Replaced Ultegra 12x25 with SRAM 11x28. Currently running with compact 50/34. Nice, great for steep hills and the 11 tooth cog is great on the flats. This set-up gives all the gears I had on my triple.
Strengths: Light, easy to install.
Weaknesses: Can't seems to get rid of very slight chain noise. I've fooled with RD but on three middle gears I can't get rid of noise. Maybe it's the Shimano chain?
