SRAM PG-1170 11-Speed Cassette

Bought the 11-36 for the tough gravel climbs......helps while you're sitting to get a better grip on any surface

I recently got this for my Tacx Neo for indoor Zwifting this winter. I do about 250 miles a week on Zwift and I really wanted a premium cassette for buttery smooth shifting and this 11-36 Force cassette delivered!!! I got it on a daily special for 65 dollars and went a head and got an 11-32 while I was at it. I did the whole Planet Hoth thing last year but after my insulated water bottles froze solid I knew this year I would spend the cash and stay in my living room. I normally run an 10-42 Sram XX1 1199 MTB cassette on my carbon Giant TCX but after demoing Zwift at the LBS I learned the hills on Zwift were about 70% of real hills!!! this a perfect indoor training cassette and I would recommend it to anyone serious about cycling.

I purchased this cassette in order to pick up a couple more teeth to make climbing gravel roads a little easier. It works like a champ in conjunction with Shimano 105 shifters & RD-R7000 MD rear derailleur which officially only accommodates an 11-34 cassette. A slight adjustment to the B limit screw was necessary. The PG-1170 cassette is quite a bit lighter than the PG-1130 cassette if that's important to you but both would have worked.

To enhance my climbing ability with a 71 year-old body, and SRAM 11-36 cassette pairs nicely with Shimano GRX cranks (Shimano doesn�t sell an 11-36 for whatever reason, Bike Tires Direct is always reliable, prompt and fair, in my experience. So good p[rodict and excellent vendor!

Wanted a 36 to get up the hills a little better, and taking a cue from Roglic! I don�t climb mountains, but some hills are very steep here in Nashville. Running it with Dura Ace as well, and just got the Red chain which works a little better than DA. LBS wouldn�t even sell it to me, said it wouldn�t work!

Shimano 11-40 ioverkill and 11-34 is to little for my gravel bike. Sram 11-36 is ideal gearing for me. Also the spacing between gears is a little closer compared with the 11-40. The downside is it doen't shift quite as smoothly as Shimano Hyperglide.

All my bikes have been equipped with Campy, and buying a new bike I was sold to tryout SRAM....

I put 6000 miles on the cassette this summer, and just loved the whole system!!!!

At my age, its better to mouline than push the big gears..... I wish they provided cassette from 13,and up, since I never used 11and12....!!!!

Good value, works well, and I would buy again.

I had an 11/34 cassette but was looking for a lower gear on a hill. I opted for the 11/36 cassette, and it works just fine. I didn't even need to replace the chain.

It was time to upgrade. New chain, new cassette. Works well with my compact set up. Best deals and customer service from BTD. Couldn't be happier.

Paired with a CX1 derailleur, this cassette offers plenty of range. Haven't dropped a chain yet.

I live in WA and we do have some longer climbs so I wanted some extra gears as I do more fondo's. This gearing gives me more range to climb with less pressure on my knees than before. I ride sram 1x on the front and this gives me everything I need on the low and high end.

I now need a wider gear range. Low gears (32) for climbing and high (11) for the decent. Works great

Use this on my gravel bike.

Replaced the Shimano 11x34 with a11x36 Sram. Shifting equal to Shimano. Easy way to get lower gearing.

Works without any issue with Di2 GRX

Great product, best bang for the buck and shifts well with not much of a weight penalty

It's great to be consistent and use SRAM throughout the entire drivetrain. Thus, I purchased this cassette for my cyclocrossgravel grinder bike. No issues, everything works like a charm. I needed the extra gearing for Rasputitsa (ouch). All's well that ends well.
