Hello there

I'm currently running with a 11-32 cassette with SRAM apex wifli. This is too much of a big range for the terrain I ride. Would the rear mech be able to handle a 12-25 cassette?

Any opinions are helpful thanks

    Yep, but you may need to shorten the chain a link so as to eliminate slack when on the 25.

    It's already managing a wider range of sprockets, so strictly speaking you don't need to shorten the chain. Might look tidier / be less likely to rattle the chainstay over rough tarmac if you do remove a link or two though.
