I was looking to get a cassette with a tighter gear range for a race in Miami. (I typically ride in Seattle, so I don't need the 11-30 that i currently use for hills).
When i did IMAZ on a similar cassette it seemed i was always *missing the gear i wanted.
On Amazon, a SHIMANO CS-6700 11-25 is $56 but a 11-23 is $123
The difference is that the 11-25 substitutes a 16 tooth cog for the 25. (But I tend to rid mid cassette most of the time... so i might actually miss it)
Is there a reason for the price difference? Or is it just that the 11-25 is so much more popular that there sell eleventy billion of them but only a few people want the 11-23?
I do the same thing as them, just slower
