Lizzard30 Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Hi.. I'm thinking of changing my cluster to a 9-46.. running 32 oval in front now.. with 10-36.. is it any good with the wide range of gears....
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Yes. You'll need the XD Driver for your hub, though.
Allrounder Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 where do you get that cluster? Cant you just up to a 34 in front?
Odinson Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Those e13 cassettes are horrifyingly expensive. There are also peeps on the interwebs that say that riding in the 9T sprocket squares off the chain too much. What effect that has on component wear, I don't know.
Lizzard30 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Posted March 23, 2017 34 will make climbing even worse for me... I'm struggling on steep inclines coming from 2x and now 1x..
Lizzard30 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Posted March 23, 2017 Myles apparently on my bike it fit straight on.. Scott spark 920 2016.. so not sure... that's what to shops said...
Lefty V Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Pinned.co.za had them for much less than the LBS...but still not cheap.Fitted the 9-42 10 speed version yesterday but still struggling to get gears (indexing) sorted.
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Myles apparently on my bike it fit straight on.. Scott spark 920 2016.. so not sure... that's what to shops said...What cassette is in there atm. Sram 10-42?
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 If you're running an 11-36 you'll need a new XD driver for your hub. It will NOT fit straight on your existing free hub. There is no such cassette as 10-36
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 I'd suggest just getting a sunrace 11-42 10sp cassette if you're running 10sp. That will fit straight on your existing hub if you're running an 11-36 at the moment
Lizzard30 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Posted March 23, 2017 Mine is a 1x11.. standard out of factory.. are you sure it is 11-36 and not 10-36.. cause if so I do need the XD driver
Lizzard30 Posted March 23, 2017 Author Posted March 23, 2017 Sorry my mistake.. my current bike is 10-42.... I was still stuck on my 2x bike.. sorry...
robsc Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Have they sorted out the creak in those E-thirteens yet
LuckyLuke Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 My mate fitted one last week and raced with it over the weekend..Struggled a bit to get it shifting properly but after that it worked flawlessly..his running a 30 oval on the front. Also came off a 10-42 and he recons the 9-46 is the best invention ever...haha
stefmeister Posted March 23, 2017 Posted March 23, 2017 Those e13 cassettes are horrifyingly expensive. There are also peeps on the interwebs that say that riding in the 9T sprocket squares off the chain too much. What effect that has on component wear, I don't know.Expensive indeed. To me it also seems lately that e13 has more and more become the 'new' show pony brand that's kitted on top of range bikes. Where bikes used to be paraded with enve rims, they're now fitted with e13 trs carbon rims and their carbon cranks.What makes the brand so 'good?'
