Shimano(シマノ) CS-M8000 11S CS-M8000

I recently upgraded to the Shimano Xt Cs-M8000 Cassette and have found it to be a great addition to my bike setup. Shimano never disappoints when it comes to delivering high-quality, reliable gear, and this cassette is no exception.What I love the most is the efficiency it brings to my rides. Shifting is smooth and quick, allowing me to maintain a consistent cadence across various terrains. It's clear that Shimano has put a lot of thought into the gear ratios; they feel well-balanced and versatile.Durability also appears to be a strong suit of this cassette. After several rides, including a few on rough trails, there are no signs of wear and tear. The build quality is what you would expect from a brand like Shimano: robust and made to last.However, a word of caution: make sure to check the compatibility with your existing drivetrain components. I had to make minor adjustments to my derailleur to ensure a perfect fit. It wasn't a major issue, but something to consider before making the purchase.All in all, the Shimano Xt Cs-M8000 Cassette is a solid upgrade for those looking to improve their biking experience. Just ensure that it's compatible with your existing setup to make the most out of it.

I like the fact that more rings are combined which spreads the load on your freehub when you are cranking. My old SLX cassette had individual rings that were cutting into the freehub body.Time will tell, but I see this cassette lasting many years to come.

I've always used XT grades for my bikes, prices are very good for someone who rides but don't have the budget for very high price items

I bought it for my bike because it's an XT. Didn't like how much it cost. Hope it's durable. So far no complaints.

Ditched the 2x10 for a 1x11 worked out the ranges I had using the two front rings, with a single 34 up front and the 11-46 at the rear I really did not lose much in between. The 46 t is massive but if you want a really good crawling compromise on 1x set up this is the way to go. Paired it up to an XT mech and shifter, took about an hour set it all up and like most Shimano stuff once set simply forget. Works perfectly and even changing up to the 46 is as effortless as the rest of the cassette. Just pay attention to the B screw spacing.

Put this on my mountain bike with a sram 11-speed derailleur and with a quick adjustment it worked perfectly.

I replaced the factory 3x9 gear set on my Specialized Camber with the Shimano XT gear set. The system works great, and the cassette gives me the ability to use my preferred pedal cadence throughout its gear range. At 71 yrs young, I was afraid I wouldn't have the legs to spin anything higher than a 46 tooth for climbing. I was wrong, and should have gotten the 44 or 42 tooth. But with a 33 tooth crank ring the gearing is just right. The XT system is fantastic and easy to install and care for. Typical Shimano quality which I personally recommend.

I'm running the 11-42 on my other bike with a 34t chainring. I wanted to run a 38t chainring on this bike to get me a little more top end speed. I picked the 11-46 to offset the 38t. Worked like a charm. In low it feels like little old ladies with walkers may pass you at any moment but there isn't a hill steep enough that you cant power through.
