Not sure which freehub you have? Shimano HG has a splined body with a lockring; Microspline is Shimano 12-speed; SRAM XD/XDR is a threaded body. Send me a photo if in doubt.
I don't hold this in stock. As an authorised Garbaruk distributor I order it in for you when you buy, usually about 3 weeks. I'll email you when it ships.

Often needed with this
- A matching Garbaruk chainring
Cassette and chainring wear together, so they are best changed together.
- Fitting at the workshop
Labour from £15, with collection and return if you want it.
- Chain wax
A waxed chain lasts longer and keeps a light cassette clean.

FAQ
Does the 10–52T cassette really work with stock XPLR derailleurs?
Yes, it does! Only with Rival XPLR & Force XPLR. For RED XPLR the cage is required for correct operation. The difference is Red has a thicker carbon cage that cannot shift to 52T consistently without bumping into the largest gear
Which XPLR drivetrains is this cassette compatible with??
The cassette is compatible with all 13-speed AXS XPLR derailleurs. For full compatibility list, check the "specs & compatibility" tab
What chain should I use with this cassette?
We recommend using SRAM 13-speed flattop chains
Is it XDR compatible? Do I need a spacer?
This cassette is XD and ships with a 1.8mm spacer for installation on XDR freehubs. If you have XDR - use the spacer
Are other cassette sizes or configurations planned?
Yes, we will release other sizes by the end of Q1 2026. We're planning to do a similar to stock size, and possibly a smaller cassette, like 10-40. Stay tuned!
Can I replace a worn aluminium sprocket?
Yes, you can! Just email our team using our contact form and we'll get you sorted
