Customer Reviews

Shimano Sora HG50 9 Speed Road Cassette is rated 4.7 out of 5 by 272.
Rated 5 out of 5 by from Expected Shimano Quality As I expected the cassette is of high quality. Was easier to fit than I thought, with the appropriate tools also purchased from Wiggle.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Does what it say on the box Great cassette well engineered as you would expect from Shimano. Doesn't get better than that.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great price and easy to fit Great quality even with it being more towards the budget end when it comes to Shimano . Easy to fit, remove clip at back of cassette and just slide them all straight onto the wheel without having to align each one individually. No complaints with the cassette.

Difference between CS-HG50 & HG50

I need to replace my cassette, which is a CS HG50 12/25T on my winter commuter . You sell an HG50 with 12/25T; but the nearest CS version is11/32. Just wondering what the difference is between the CS version & non-CS version. Should I stick with same ratio & go non-CS or stick with CS version & change ratios. Thanks.
Asked by: gsbristol
I can confirm that the HG50 and the CS-HG50 are identical products however the listings may have different gearing options.

do i need spacers ?

i have recently acquired a mavic aksium race wheelset,it needs a cassette im running a 9 speed sora/tiagra set up on my bike so I know this should fit,my problem is ive read confusing things about spacers that should be used on mavic wheels,there is no spacer supplied with the wheel so do I need one along with the cassette and if so what do I need. thanks
Asked by: jamesyp
The Mavic freehub is designed to take a Mavic casette (which doesn't need a spacer) so if you're using the Shimano HG50 with Mavic Aksiums you will need a spacer, these should be available online (perhaps on here??) from ~ £1.99 or alternatively try your friendly LBS. I've got one on my bike (Sora Groupset with Mavic Aksiums) and it came with the wheels.

Will this be compatible with a tiagra groupset?

I have Tiagra groupset on my bike, but from way back in 1999! Want to lower the ratios for my son, so wondered if this will be compatible? thanks
Asked by: Dougthedoc
I have fitted this cassete to a 9speed ultegra group set from the same era no problems so a tiagra would also be ok

Shimano HG50 cassette v HG80

Looking to buy a new cassette for a new set of wheels I'm buying. Is the HG80 lighter than the HG50. I have a 12-27t but was interested in the 11-28t HG80, Shimano only list it as a MTB cassette? Are there any disadvantages in the slightly wider spread in the ratio?
Asked by: ChrisCFC
28 T may be too much for most rear derailleurs on road bikes (27 is the usual max). You can try adjusting the "B" tension screw to its maximum or even reversing it. If this doesn't work you may have to use a long cage rear derailleur usually sold as mtb derailleurs. These work just as well as a road derrailuer but are a little heavier. I use a shimano XT rear derailleur on my touring bike and this can run with a 32 on the rear no problem.

Will this (11-30T) fit on a Cannondale Six Carbon 6?

Im currently running 12-23T and i'm having big troubles with hills. Will an 11-30T casette fit me?
Asked by: Twitchel
Depends on length of your chain- probably need a new one and your rear dérailleur though that should be ok. 30 is a bit excessive unless you're touring with big bags- a 27 should do the job!

Compatible with 105 9 speed?

Would this cassette be OK with a 105 9 speed circa 2005? Was going to also purchase a HG 73 9 speed chain to go with the cassette, is this combo OK? Thanks
Asked by: Patalawi
Yes this is fully compatable with 9 speed 105 ,HG73 . My bike is the same age as yours and this was original equipment on it .

11-32 on sora rear derailleur?

Will this be compatible on my Giant Defy 2 running 9-speed sora 3400 rear derailleur or will I need to also upgrade to a long cage derailleur and new chain?
Asked by: BarneyF
I can confirm that due to the size of the cassette you will need to have a long cage rear dérailleur for it to work and not foul on the cassette. I hope this helps.

will this cassette fit a 2011 Kona Honky Tonk?

It has 11-25 9 speed cassette, but I'd like a lower ratio for hills. Would 11-28 or 11-30 fit, if they are avaliable? would I need to change anything else on the bike?
Asked by: DaveP150
Fitting an 11-28 tooth cassette should not cause any issues however an extra link in the chain may be required. For up to a 30 tooth rear sprocket, you may find that you need to replace the rear derailleur also.
