Tifosi 9 speed HG compatible 11-34 cassettes at £16. with another 10% off for multiple purchases, https://www.spacycles.co.uk/m8b0s150p4880/TIFOSI-9spd-HG-(Shimano-Compatible)-Cassette

The spacing is interesting, which is why I've bought some. The top and bottom ratios act as an overdrive and underdrive, leaving 7 nicely spaced cogs between the extremes.

Even cheaper from Rutland Cycles, but you might prefer to give your money to Spa.

Anybody know what the quality of Tifosi cassettes is like? and the shifting - how smooth. I run 9-speed x-34 at the moment, and my current cassette was (way) more than this one.

Don't know about the 9 speed ones, but just look at the reviews on the 11 speed one linked to by @Ajax Bay above - they're not exactly complimentary!

Kind of what I was expecting at that price point. My current SRAM PG-990 is now pushing (if not over) £100

I'm planning on fitting and using mine this weekend. So will let you know. It will be replacing a PG-990 !

I don't run tubeless and to be honest I never really noticed they were...cheap enough anyway.Ive had them before and quite liked them.

Wow, belter.

That is a bargain, although I'm not 100% sure of the size, but got to be worth a punt at that price.

Is this not the size ?

If somebody wants to dip their toes into the gravel bike scene or maybe wants a commuter this looks interesting:

£700 for a Sora equipped bike seems good to me, and apparently an extra 15% off with code EXTRA15 (not tested though) so could be had for under £600

Nice bike! Sadly though the discount code doesn’t apply on ‘Wow deals’.

Apologies for getting anybodies hopes up, got the impression from a leaflet that dropped through the door that the code was valid for this bike. Still not a bad buy though!
