MICROSHIFT Cassette - Acolyte CS-H083-8 Speed - 12-42T - Black, 11-25t

As a long time gravel and trail rider who’s built up a few bikes from scratch - I can say this kit is up there with the best from sram and shimano. Solid and dependable shifting action, nice build quality, easy to install and good looking. The overall drivetrain is not quite as slick as the pricier options - but it’s close and much better value. I’ll definitely recommend microshift from now on.

Excellent companion to the clutched derailleur. This is the best bargain 1x conversion groupset available.

Gutes Bergfahren mit Hänger.

I bought this cassette to pair it with the Microshift Acolyte 8 speed derailleur (with spring lock). The installation was easy and it shifted perfectly with minimal adjustments. A very budget way to upgrade a mountain bike.

Fits common cassette freehub. 12-46 is a decently capable range to be 1x with. It's matching shifter and clutched derailer belong amongst the names of sram and shimano. Lots of metal so it's heavier, but surprisingly functions very well. Excellent value for performance if you're not counting grams or trying to build lightweight. I have owned xt, x9, xo, deore. This is in that performance range in the almost extinct 8 spd setup. Advent dared to go simpler in a world of proprietary freehubs, skinny chains, and tight tolerances and hit a home run in my opinion. Good job going against the grain Advent
