Hey, where are you all getting your rear cassettes? I have been looking for a replacement purely for keeping it in stock for when needed, but no one seems to have stock at all!

I see stock here, but it seems to have a "B1" in it but can't seem to find what that means.

If you Google the Sram product code in that listing you'll see a lot more sellers who don't bother with the B1 part of the description.

I've got one from my KSL that I could be persuaded to part with.

It seems A1 and B1 are used by SRAM to differentiate 2 products that do the same job but the A1 is a lower cost version and the B1 the more expensive/higher specced version.
There is only 1 version of the Xg 1275 cassette.........its B1. ( in other words its darned Bloody expensive!! ....as opposed to Affordable!)

I went with the one from lordgun. Will report back when it arrives and if I had to pay import costs etc. I am hoping because I am based in NI the whole in and out of the EU might help!

Got it delivered today with no import tax. Now I must say it just arrived wrapped in plastic in a FedEx box, but it is what I ordered and its not damaged.

Is the €149 inc tax? If you're in the UK it may be displaying prices without tax.

Less than £135 so shouldn't be tax to pay.
Less than £135 inc local tax, yes, but I've noticed when browsing the EU shops that all the prices are shown are tax-free.

I've just checked and the price is indeed tax-free.

B1 = 10-52 to differentiate from the original 10-50.

This is correct.
B1 = 10-52t

From what I understand, If you have AXS the derailleur it will be compatible with both versions. I don't believe this is the same for the mechanical derailleur, since I've seen it listed as 'B1 version cassette - for use with B2 Eagle rear derailleurs'.

Sorry Doomanic, I just realised clicked on the wrong person quote, my bad mate.

I hope you don’t have the same problem with R2 that I had when I ordered a chain ring last year, all I got from them was about 10 emails stating it was out of stock, I waited weeks and eventually I got so pissed off waiting I cancelled the order and bought it from XXCYCLES and low and behold it arrived in less than a week from Germany, I’ll never buy from R2 ever again, I prey your experience is much better mate 👍

It arrived today, 7 days after putting the order in. Nothing else to pay, and a pack of Haribo GoldBaren which I am very unhappy about as there are more Grun und Rot than Gold. Bloody EU!!!

Lordgun and others are now showing out of stock. Due dates with most UK retailers have now gone to Nov 2022!

Had mine delivered from R2 today for £132 in total. Great service as only ordered Tuesday evening!
