11-21 cassette

    I am looking for an 11-21 in Shimano. The only one I can see is Dura-ace though and I don't have the spondoolies for that. I was hoping for an Ultegra for €50 or less.
    So does anyone know if what I'm looking for exists?
    Cheers,
    Slo

    Shimano only do it in DA. I think BBB (:pac:) do one

    According to their website at least, Miche do make 11 speed Shimano cassettes, including 11-21. However I've yet to see them sold anywhere. They may only be new for 2014 and not in stock yet.

    I've had better experiences with Miche cassettes than BBB.

    are you 9, 10 or 11 speed?

    I'm curious as to when a 11-21t cassette would be optimum. Doing TT on a flat course with a compact crank or you just a beast of a cyclist?

    I'm not strong enough to go under a 25t with all the hills around.

    The 9 and 10 SRAM equivalents would leave you with 11-21 for 30euro and 11-23 for under 50euro respectively.
    I also hear someone has a little used 9 speed dura ace 11 - 21 for sale ;) if that's your bag

    I've a compact crankset and my league race is pan flat.
    No I need a 25 myself, I hat climbing. But flats and drags are where I'm comfortable. Think of me as a bit of a Tony Martin but only with one leg...or a stone bike....or flat tyres!!!

    Ha.. a beast of a cyclist - did you not read my username??? It's not ironic or witty...the cap fits!!

    I can get an ultegra 23-11 for samsies but same hub will do so that would prob be better. I am assuming the sram is not compatible here - am I wrong? Now if you could get a compatible Sram 21-11 then I am in like Quinn...

    Thanks, how does this compare to Shimano? Would it be equivalent to Ultegra/105/Tiagra?

    This is deffo a possibility.

    Comparing BBB with Shimano is akin to comparing diamonds with cheese.

    SRAM and Shimano are completely interchangeable apart from rear derailleurs.
