Shimano CS-HG500-10 cassette, 10-speed, 12-28T

A close-ratio 10-speed cassette for riders who want to hold a cadence rather than chase a bailout gear. Single-tooth steps run from 12T to 15T, so on flat and rolling roads you can always find the gear you actually want, and the lightweight sprocket carrier keeps the weight sensible.

Highlights

  • 10-speed cassette, 12-28T
  • Sprockets: 12-13-14-15-17-19-21-23-25-28T
  • Single-tooth steps across the top four sprockets
  • Lightweight sprocket carrier
  • Shimano HG system

Close ratios for road riding

The 12-28T spread is the classic all-round road block: tight enough through the middle to keep your cadence steady in a group, with a 28T at the bottom for the climbs that matter.

Compatibility and fit

Shimano 10-speed drivetrains, on a standard HG freehub body. Run it with a Shimano 10-speed chain. Fitting a 10-speed cassette to an 11-speed freehub body requires a spacer behind the cassette. Ask us if you are not sure which freehub your wheel has.

Shimano warrants this cassette against defects in materials and workmanship. Normal wear is excluded, which here means sprocket tooth wear from use, along with damage caused by running a worn chain, crash damage, or damage from incorrect fitting or an under- or over-tightened lockring.

Warranty claims and returns are handled by Tune Cycles. Contact us with your order number, send the part back to us, and we will assess it and lodge the claim with the distributor on your behalf. Please do not send the part to Shimano directly.
