If you can't see why a cassette made of stamped steel sprockets (from a brand with a dubious durability track record) is overpriced compared to one piece machined blocks of steel from the same brand for not that much more, or a Carbon bodied cassette with Steel/Ti/Alu sprockets from an alternative brand, then frankly you must be on crack.

They are overcharging as they have you over a barrel with the XD free hub. It's the cheapest available compatible option, but it is far from good value.

Of course it's durability isn't yet known, but based on the wear rates for other cassettes from that brand - it doesn't look good!

OP - No.
