The Shimano CUES CS-LG300-9 9-Speed Cassette with an 11-36T range redefines durability and versatility in entry-to-mid-level drivetrains, delivering Shimano’s latest LINKGLIDE™ innovation to riders who demand both smooth shifting and long-lasting performance. Designed specifically for the new CUES groupset ecosystem, this cassette is a major leap forward for urban cyclists, commuters, tourers, and trail explorers who crave more endurance and less drivetrain wear.
At the heart of the CS-LG300-9 is Shimano’s LINKGLIDE™ technology—a drivetrain concept focused on minimizing wear and extending component life. LINKGLIDE offers a smoother, more stable shifting experience, particularly under load, thanks to optimized tooth profiles and redesigned shift ramps that reduce chain skipping and premature wear. This makes it ideal not just for traditional bikes, but also for e-bikes, which exert greater torque on drivetrains.
With its wide-range 11-36T gear spread, the CS-LG300-9 enables effortless high-speed cruising in the smallest cog and low-cadence climbing in the massive 36T sprocket—ideal for tackling everything from flat commutes to mountain switchbacks. The gear steps are engineered to deliver smooth cadence transitions and consistent pedaling rhythms, whether you're in traffic, on a gravel path, or winding through forest trails.
Built for longevity, the cassette features hardened steel sprockets and a robust finish that resists rust, corrosion, and surface wear—even in harsh weather and under continuous load. The cassette’s thoughtful design and Shimano-standard spline compatibility make it easy to install and maintain, while its seamless integration with CUES 9-speed rear derailleurs, shifters, and LINKGLIDE chains ensures precise and dependable drivetrain function.
