Is appears the only difference is the lack of ti cogs, right? So shifting won't be affected. The price difference it pretty big. Any other thoughts?
Thanks

Do it, and you are correct, they are the same minus the Ti cogs.
Titanium cogs are one of the dumbest ideas in the industry, atmo.

That's correct, its only a matter of a few Ti cogs (and the accompanying weight loss) . Otherwise they are identical in construction and shifting.

Thousands of miles with that set up! I experience zero performance loss, and I keep a few extra grams in my wallet ;)

Thank you Gents. Any suggestions on where to pick them up?

Local bike shop of course. Find a good one and support them, and they'll most likely return the favor with some discounts.

You should be able to get these at most any store, on-line of otherwise. Performance has been having some good sales lately.
If you want an 11-28, I have one with about 100 miles on it (in other words, almost new). Send me a PM and I'll make you a deal.

I have a 12-25 that's nearly new as well.
Was sold to me via Ebay as an American Classic Conversion Cassette by someone who obviously didn't even open the AC box to verify. New when I bought it, used about 1-200 mi.

Thanks all. I'm looking for an 11-28 for a hilly century coming up in a month. rnhood - PM sent.
