Solid and dependable shifting action, nice build quality, easy to install and good looking. The overall drivetrain is not quite as slick as the pricier options - but it’s close and much better value. I’ll definitely recommend microshift from now on. Review: Smooth Shifting Acolyte - I bought this cassette to pair it with the Microshift Acolyte 8 speed derailleur (with spring lock). The installation was easy and it shifted perfectly with minimal adjustments. A very budget way to upgrade a mountain bike. ## Features - HEAVY DUTY Sprockets are chrome plated for hardness and corrosion resistance - Consistent Shifting Continuously molded gears are straighter than stamped steel, resulting in more predictable shifting performance - Robust: precision ramps and chamfers for fast chain movement - Compatible: works with SRAM and Shimano 9 speed systems ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B09B9H21HS | | Batteries required | No | | Best Sellers Rank | #224,683 in Sports & Outdoors ( See Top 100 in Sports & Outdoors ) #169 in Bike Cassettes & Freewheels | | Customer Reviews | 5.0 5.0 out of 5 stars (26) | | Department | unisex | | Global Trade Identification Number | 04710495438429 | | Import | Made in the USA or Imported | | Included Components | x | | Is Discontinued By Manufacturer | No | | Item Weight | 1.39 pounds | | Item model number | CS-H083 12-42 | | Manufacturer | Microshift | | Product Dimensions | 6.59 x 6.59 x 1.79 inches | | Warranty Description | Original Manufacturer Warranty | ## Product Details - **Brand:** microSHIFT - **Color:** Black - **EU Spare Part Availability Duration:** 5 Years - **Material:** Acrylic - **Mounting Type:** Braze-On Mount ## Images ![Cassette - Acolyte CS-H083-8 Speed - 12-42T - Black, 11-25t - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81TuehCoNBL.jpg) ## Available Options This product comes in different **Size** options. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Solid, dependable and killer value! *by O***W on June 5, 2024* As a long time gravel and trail rider who’s built up a few bikes from scratch - I can say this kit is up there with the best from sram and shimano.
