Description
The MICROSHIFT ADVENT MX CS-XD11611V Cassette is the lightest and most technical 11-speed cassette in the microSHIFT range. Designed specifically for top-level mountain biking and gravel, it offers an impressive 11-50 tooth development range (or 454%) while maintaining a very competitive weight.
Its strength lies in its hybrid structure: the first 10 sprockets are made of steel to guarantee smooth, durable gear shifting, while the 50-tooth sprocket is machined from aluminum. This technical choice drastically reduces the rotating mass on the rear of your bike, improving responsiveness during relaunching and overall bike agility.
What's the difference with the CS-EG116 (Sword) version? Although they share the same technology (50T aluminum sprocket), the CS-XD116 is optimized for mountain biking (ADVENT X series), while the CS-EG116 is badged for the Sword (Gravel) series. The stages are identical, but the aesthetic finishes may vary slightly to match their respective groupsets.
Do aluminum sprockets wear out faster? Aluminum is softer than steel. If you spend 100% of your time on the 50-tooth, it will wear out faster than an all-steel version (like the CS-H114). However, for normal use where the 50T serves as a "spare sprocket" for steep slopes, it's the ideal compromise.
Why choose this version over the "all-steel" version? For responsiveness. On a rear wheel, 150g of difference is immediately felt in acceleration. If you're looking for a dynamic, lively bike, the XD116 is the best choice.

Points forts
Featherweight (565g): Thanks to its large aluminum sprocket, it's around 150g lighter than the all-steel versions, a crucial weight saving for racers and lightweight bike enthusiasts.
Wide Ratio Range: With a 50-tooth sprocket, no wall will resist you. You'll have enough development to stay on the bike even on the steepest climbs.
Precise gear spacing: The jumps between gears are optimized to avoid abrupt cadence changes, ensuring constant pedaling comfort.
Premium finish: High-quality coating for excellent durability and easy removal of mud and dirt.
HG compatibility: Installs on standard freewheel bodies (Shimano HG), eliminating the need to invest in a new hub or wheel.
