Hi guys, want to pick your brains…I need to change the cassette on my gravel bike. At present it is fitted with Sunrace 11-36T 10 speed cassette with ultegra chain which I replaced recently. I know that Shimano Deore HG cassette with similar specs is one option as a replacement. However came across really good price from SRAM PG1030 11-36T 10 speed cassette for only £15 which is normally sold for £40ish. According to the SRAM chart it’s compatible with Shimano but wanted to check if you have any experience? I am very tempted to go for it as best price at present for Shimano Deore 11-36T 10 speed is £26 at Halfords while Sunrace is around £30ish. For simplicity I just want a straight swap without the need to tinker with adjustments! Any advice as always will be greatly appreciated. Thanks

I use Shimano cassettes with my SRAM groupset and SRAM chains with no issues. I'd choose Shimano or SRAM over sunrace.
Check whatever you buy is genuine from a proper retailer, lots of fake stuff out there

yes compatible , for commuting i even use decathlon branded stuff which is generally rebadged microshift stuff .Quality is not quite as good as shimano etc but they do the job .
