Cassettes explained please

+1 on giving everyone more time to respond. The other thing that I would mention is that if you don't get answers as quickly as you'd like, perhaps you should check with your nearest bike shop.

Another thing that I would mention here is that unless your bike or current chain/cassette is fairly new, you may have to change your chain as well. Your chain and cassette mate together, and replacing one without other may cause serious problems.

I agree with others, that perhaps a bit more information about you, your riding habits, terrain would be helpful. Hopefully all of the responses have guided you in the right direction.

The OP in this thread (and the thread started some time ago) is the one that made a snarky comment about people not timely responding, not SFLiz.

Indysteel, thanks for the clarification although I wasn't gearing this response to SFliz.

Yeah, I wasn't sure in truth. Since the tread was started a while ago and by somebody who I don't think is currently on the forum, I thought I'd clarify that the most recent question was posed by someone other than the impatient OP.
