There are quite a few 9 speed cassettes with different ratios, but most if not all start with 11 or 12 teeth. One reason is the cassette lockring requires the small cog.0

I think you could go 12-36, bit of a lump though0
-
interesting, why do you 36 teeth?0

Don't think you get 36 in 9 speed.I don't do smileys.

There is a Deore 12-36 in 9 speed.0

Yup. And can be converted to 11-36 as well. But it weighs as much as an 8-year-old.Uncompromising extremist0

I'd did not know that. Might look into it with my puny legs.
But the OP is looking to get rid of the little ones so I don't think we're helping much.I don't do smileys.

Can't see how he can.

You can get road blocks with 13T little rings can't you? Just a case of buying cheap cassettes and shuffling the cogs then. Stupid idea mind.Uncompromising extremist0

Why do you really need to even do that?0

I mean the OP. As far as i can figure out you'd just be adding weight and achieving what you could have done by just not using gear 9...Northwind wrote:Because it was there0 -

Why? I'm just trying to work out what gain you might get. whast front rings are you using? seriously a a 32t front on a 12t rear does spin out quite easily.-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_

Why are MTB economics; spend twice as much as you intended, but only half as much as you wish you could afford? :roll:0
