SRAM Force AXS XG-1270 Cassette

replaced rival 10-30 with these on my 1x road bike. It gives me enough range when things become hilly on the ride. It does jump quite a bit but where I ride there are sudden short ascend up to 8-10% then relatively flat everywhere else, it works.

What do you say about a cassette???? It either is quality and works, or is not! The SRAM 1270 cassette was easily installed as I wrench my bikes for the most part and when paired with the new Force flat top chain, performed flawlessly. I did wax the new chain as well so that is a new thing I started. The cassette even has the 36-tooth sprocket blacked out with Force painted on the back side. Unless it wears prematurely, I expect it to perform like my Rival cassette did but just a tad lighter.

Works just as well and as quiet as the RED cassette I moved over to my race wheels. Slightly heavier, but way less expensive!

Installation is super easy. Shifts are crisp and quiet. Nice close gear inch changes.

Need to use Force if you want 10-36. Works well, no issues

I've had good luck with the XG-1270 cassettes on both my gravel bike and my road bike. They shift quickly and consistently. If I am riding and racing a lot, it takes about two or three seasons for my one or two most commonly used cogs to wear out and then it's time to replace the cassette.

Used on an endurance/gravel bike for road-only rides when I don't need the XPLR's 44 largest cog. Shifts cleanly and quickly and is dead quiet with a SRAM flattop chain. Gear spacing is intuitive--you can guess what you'll get going up or down a gear in terms of the change. Assuming it lasts, it's all you could ask for. Given the steel construction of the smaller 11 and how seldom I use the aluminum 12th, I expect it to last.

I bought the Sram Force Cassette in 10-30 before the new Sram Red 10-30 cassette was released.

The Force Cassette is a perfect mixture of quality at a lower price the Red.

The price is right and so so close in weight to Red. If Red came in 10/36 I would have them on my bikes but it doesn't so this is the second best thing. I believe proper gearing will out weight a little weight saving any day.

The SRAM Force AXS XG-1270 Cassette has all of the performance at a price point I can handle! I have the benefit of smooth shifting of the AXS platform and no appreciable difference from the Red AXS. I have Red AXS one another bike, as comparison. Great upgrade for 26x10 set of wheels.

I was building out a new bike and bought a handful of products. Some I needed and some I didn't. The team never asked any odd questions about other returns and exchanges. Products are perfect AND hands down the best team to ask for help and follow up! Cheapest prices too????

Cassette works well. Actually can be used with standard cage Force rear AXS derailleur. Looks like there are two different sizes of these derailleurs that they don't seem to high light. There are some stamped with a 33t and another stamped 36T. It appears that the 36t is not as common and can be found in the wide groupos

Great update. Light weight and very Quite. Perfect setup is the 50/37 crankset with the 10-36 cassette. Literally the Goldilocks combo. It is a do it all combo. For fast group rides to hill climbs. The sram force chainset plus cassette made a big upgrade in shifting over my rival on my SL7.

I added a 33x36 to my wife's bike. It maxes out the set screw on the Force rear derailleur but I have been able to get it to work without having to purchase the XPLR rear derailleur. I wish they would make a Red version of one of these.

I started with the SRAM RED 10-33 cassette and always found the 5 tooth jump from 33 to 28 baffling. A five tooth jump was becoming annoying as 33 was too large and 28 wasn't enough. Then I switched to this cassette in a 10-36. What a difference. The four largest gears have a four tooth jump which is much more tolerable. 24-28-32-36. So I basically get the previous cassette with an larger 36 cog.

One day sale item just in time. Needed a new cassette, was going with Force however the daily sale made this top of the line option available.

Using my 10-28 for flats and up to 6% grades. Changes perfectly everytime.

Got this to pair with my 48/35 SRAM Force cranks. Good spacing for both climbs and decents at Crater Lake Rim, OR.

No issues . Ride road bike 6000 to 8000 miles per year. I change the cassette once during that mileage timeframe. Helps make the SRAM chain last longer.
