CCACHE EXPERIMENT05
Ever wondered why your cassette couldn't come in black? We may have found a solution.
Cerakote is a weapons-grade ceramic coating that is only 1 mil thick (that's 1/1000th of an inch) and adds virtually no weight.
We've applied a matte black Cerakote coating to each cog in the top tier Dura Ace 12-speed cassette. There should be no discernible difference in shift quality, and the coating is famously hard-wearing, and will last the life of the cassette with minimal discoloration.
The uninterrupted shifting experience of the DURA-ACE R9200 12-speed cassette range lets you climb, sprint, and push your limits without stopping to think about your next gear change. Larger driving cogs maximize drivetrain efficiency and create compatibility with both SHIMANO 11 and 12-speed freehub bodies.
HYPERGLIDE+ cassettes have revolutionized off-road shifting with their seamless shifts both up and down the gear range. Now it's time for the technology to change road cycling. Even during maximal efforts up a climb or nearing the finish line, riders no longer need to back off to perform a shift. In any gear, DURA-ACE R9250 drivetrains maximize efficiency thanks to larger cogs and retain compatibility with existing 11-speed freehub bodies. All this while increasing to 12-gears and without increasing weight, DURA-ACE CS-R9200 cassettes are the new paradigm in road shifting.
