will be changing the cassette on my mtb in a week or so which has a sram pg750 on at the moment,which would be a better replacement-pg770/780 or an equivalent shimano and which shimano group would you recommend ?

    Shimano and SLX, Shimano cassettes just seem to keep their newness longer and SLX is a useful weight saving over Deore. Without the expense of XT.
    Currently riding a Whyte T130C, X0 drivetrain, Magura Trail brakes converted to mixed wheel size (homebuilt wheels) with 140mm Fox 34 Rhythm and RP23 suspension. 12.2Kg.

    If it's a pg750 then a shimano hg50 would be the best replacement as slx doesn't come in a 7 speed option
