Go Shimano 12-speed without replacing half of your bike
With an ultimate solution from Garbaruk you can now have 12-speed Shimano drivetrain using regular Shimano HG freehub - no need to use Micro Spline, which can result in replacing your bike wheels. Our no-compromise solution lets you have incredible performance and drivetrain reliability without sacrificing your wallet and beloved bike wheels.
Manufactured using high-quality chromoly steel alloy coupled with the strongest possible aluminum largest cog - this product is an ultimate solution for all riders out there who are looking for efficient way to enhance the performance of their MTB or road/CX bike
As we always do with our custom-designed cassettes - we've gone with the best durability/lightweight combination ever - we machined 11 cogs out of a hardened steel alloy and attached lightweight CNC machined 52T cog made out of 7075T aluminum alloy
Lightweight and unbelievably usable
The newest 11-52T 12-speed cassette made by Garbaruk weighs just 333 grams - less than any 12-speed MTB cassette with similar range. And at the same time you can install our cassette in your existing MTB and use it with the latest 12-speed Shimano drivetrain components. All this makes our cassette an ultimate plug-and-play solution for the modern-day mountain bikers.

However, if you would like to use it with SRAM 12-speed rear derailleur, such setup will also work well. Our 12-speed cassette is compatible with Shimano HG+ 12-speed chain.

However, for those of you who want to install Garbaruk Shimano-compatible 12-speed cassette onto a Road freehub, we offer Garbaruk Cassette Spacer that helps secure the cassette in place on wider Road freehubs
