Description
Notes from MyBikeThing The CS-6500 represents Shimano’s engineering excellence with hyperglide tooth profiles for crisp shifting and durability. What sets this apart is the hyperglide technology that allows for significantly smoother shifts under load compared to standard cassettes of the era.
Condition This cassette shows normal wear patterns consistent with regular use but maintains excellent shift quality. All cogs and spacers are present and original, with even wear across the teeth. Lockring is in great condition. Need more detailed photos or have specific questions about wear? I’m Paul – Drop me a line and let’s talk about your riding style and needs.
Workshop Wisdom Pro tip: When installing, apply a thin film of grease to the hub splines but keep the lockring threads dry for proper torque.
