I just saw an add, asking 80$US for my used cassette.
I only did 500 miles, i put a new chain and it skips . . .
12 speeds, 10/52

comments said it should be in the garbage

i looked a replacement is 240$

We do not need 12S, my 10S 11/46 does the job, needs less replacement
and is way cheaper and ya less adjustment.

Hell yeah brother!

I just saw an add, asking 80$US for my used cassette.

I'm confused, I think.
Let me see if I understand.
You have a used cassette -- you want $80 for it.
Then you saw an ad (add) for it.
I'm assuming you saw the ad that you placed for your used cassette. Right? Maybe in the newspaper classifieds or on Craigslist?
I'll try to make sense of the remainder of your post once this first sentence is clarified.
Thanks,

Hmmm, I’ve got 850 miles on my original, stock Shimano 10-52 12sp cassette and chain. Chain is just now stretched to the 0.5mm (1/2 millimeter) mark according to my gauge, and I’ll replace it at the 0.75mm stretch mark. The cassette looks like it has a lot of life left, as long as I keep fresh chains on it.

I’ve not adjusted the rear derailleur once, other than a minor barrel adjustment for cable break in.

I can’t relate to what you‘re saying.

Stop riding like such a clod. Stuff lasts longer.

I run a sunrace 11 speed 11-50. Cost about $80usd new. Works better than my xt...

2000km original SLX cassette and chain ring STILL going fresh
one chain replaced @ 1500km

shift clean and maintain fella

Most of my components keep truckin' on.

You're welcome [for the update].

My 10 speed made 750 miles before the chain stretched 0.75. No noticeable wear on the gears, and it still worked fine, but I replaced the chain because $29 seems like a small price to pay for extended life on the rest of the stuff.

I read the post a couple of times trying to figure out what was being communicated..... I still don't know😜

I'm just going to assume english is not your first language, eh?
(Which is fine)

Thanks for clarifying, 33red.
I admit I'm easily frustrated by posts in which situations or ideas are not articulated clearly.
Anyway, so the cassette you're talking about isn't yours.
No one, including you, knows how that particular cassette was treated, whether it was abused or babied.
I guess I'd say due to this lack of knowledge and the fact that the cassette isn't your own, who cares whether this mystery cassette belongs in the garbage can or not?
Maybe I still don't understand the original question or the point of your post.
Are you just complaining about 11-12 speed drivetrains in general?
Don't want one? Don't buy one.

c'est super, j'ai envie de rouler à nouveau au Québec!

 

[J.B. Weld]

I guess I'd pass on buying that cassette.

Two things make no sense,
A- selling a cassette that is useless for 80$
B- no assisted bike needs a 10/52. I have tiny legs, very little power and i am fine with 11/46.
You r saying i can choose, well not many new bikes are offered in 10S it limits my options
but lucky me i found a 2021 and i love it.

What about $50?

 

[33red]

He was offered 3$ to show there is no interest

I like my 10-52 cassette. Why not? I guess it depends how hilly the area you ride in and what’s your cadence and power level used.
