Wide Just Got Wider: Introducing the 556%, 9-50T TRS+ Cassette from e*thirteen 6

Huge range, light weight, and competitive pricing - there's a lot to like about e*thirteen's updated range of cassettes.

From day one, e*thirteen’s TRS Cassettes have delivered more range and value at a lower weight than the competition. Introducing Gen2 TRS Plus Cassettes featuring revised architecture, better shifting, and multiple configurations.

New to the lineup is the TRS Plus 9-50T 12 Speed Cassette with an unmatched 556% range at only 398 grams. The TRS Plus 9-46T 11 Speed Cassette offers the same 511% range, but now uses 10 steel cogs and 1 aluminum, maximizing durability and uprating it for eBike use.
