Description
Notes from MyBikeThing The CS-6500 represents Shimano’s commitment to precision engineering with its meticulously designed Hyperglide tooth profiles and durable nickel-plated construction. This 12-27T variant offers an expanded range ideal for varied terrain while maintaining Ultegra’s signature crisp shifting.
Condition Cassette shows moderate to low use with even wear patterns across all cogs. All teeth maintain their shift ramps and profiles. Lockring and spacers are original and in excellent condition.
