Anyone know who is selling these for the best price? Cheapest I could find was crc for £189 for the x01.
Thought they might drop the price a little now that their 12 speed is out,but seems not to be the case
Thanks
Thanks,but that's the x1 cassette not x01
Just go with xg you won't notice any difference

Other than the half a pound in weight difference.

226 grams of difference are you sure?
never noticed any weight difference when hooning around on me bike
The PG is the weighty cassette. XG is around 350g in its most lardy version.
yep running the GX here, weight is ahead of XT11 and not that far behind the X01, Construction is good and longevity hopefully seems to be coming through.
There's a shop advertising X01 cassette and X1 chain for £189 on Pinkbike.

SRAM quote an [url= https://www.sram.com/sram/mountain/products/xg-1150-full-pin-cassette ]XG-1150[/url] cassette as 394g, and an [url= https://www.sram.com/sram/mountain/products/xg-1199-x-dome-cassette ]XG-1199[/url] as 268g.
So, 126g difference. Ok, that's 1/3rd lb, rather than 1/2. Drunk arithmetic for you. But either way, I suspect if someone is asking about top of the range cassettes it's for a reason, and that reason is generally weight.
Just FWIW, I'm putting a new unused SRAM XG1150, 10t-42t 11-speed in the classifieds later today 🙂
