EVOBIKES ONLINE STORE Posted June 10, 2019 Share I tried a brand new XX1 chain - will try with a slightly used oneGenerally I never buy the 1st gen of anything but when it comes to bikes all sense flies out the windowHi Waynemol Just check your chainline on the KCNC. Being a 9 instead of a 10 it is more "sensitive" to the angle of the chain so try and get the line a bit closer to the 9 - that might help with the shifting Oh yes - one NB part.... Please tell us that you installed this as a one-piece cassette and not like the E-Thirteen cassettes that are 2 pieces? In other words you did not remove the 6 Allen-key bolts that hold the 2 pieces together and slid the top part onto the freebody and screwed the bottom part on...?

Wayne pudding Mol Posted June 26, 2019 Share Ok so I called Louis at Knipe Racing after sending him the video of my chain slipping and he suggested trying a slightly used chain. I probably should have asked why but I've learnt that if I just listen to Louis things work. Instead of the brand new one, my LBS used my existing chain (also xx1 gold) This chain has about 1500km of gravel use but shows no wear.In the shop test the chain is working but I am away for a couple of days and will give it a proper test this weekend.Still seems odd that I need to do this to make a brand new cassette work Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you check the profile of a cog the teeth don't sit in an exactly straight line, some of them are closer to the next cog. Makes it easier to change gears I guess. So file that tooth a little bit, or, use a chain that's worn a bit. If you put your bike on a stand and slowly pedal the chain you'll see it catch a bit. It's definitely not limited to just this cassette, I've had it happen with 11x shimano cassettes. nonky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wayne pudding Mol Posted July 1, 2019 Share Managed to make this cassette function properly using an older chain and did two 50km rides this past weekend Just went to my Lbs and put the XX1 cassette back Here are my reasons The 9 was great and gave me massive top end - BUT on my test route I was slower than average but more tired than average. I put this down to working when I'd usually be cruising or resting. Finding the right gear apart from the 9 was awful - the satellite dish at the top is a 52 - so in conjunction with the 9, you get some weird jumps. I can't imagine ever using that 52, not sure my bike would even move forwards. It is worth noting that I used this on my gravel bike and my opinion is not based on a lot of technical know how. It may work better for another application, I'm not going to try. For now Sram remains king of the 12 speed cassette in my world BikeisLife, babse, MORNE and 4 others 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
