The Story
The Shimano CS-HG400-8 cassette is an 8-speed Hyperglide component, often part of the Acera groupset. The massive 11-40T range offers excellent versatility, especially the 40T MegaRange low gear, making steep climbing significantly easier. Its sprockets are cut away to reduce weight and are nickel-plated for corrosion resistance, providing reliable and smooth shifting on a standard HG freehub.
Features:
- High quality 8-speed cassette
- Hyperglide sprockets have a computer designed tooth configuration with contoured shift gates, resulting in a crisp smooth shift even under load
- MegaRange gearing gives a super-low 40T sprocket making it easier to climb even the steepest of hills
- Sprockets are cut away to reduce weight without reducing rigidity
- Nickel-plated finish offers hard wearing resistance to corrosion
- Corrosion-resistant steel cassette lockring
- For 8-Spd HG chains
