i recently purchased a shimano xt m771 11-36 rear cassette from chain reaction cycles.
I have just under 40 miles on the bike.
I was cleaning the chain and cassette today, prepping it for a trip to the Adirondacks this coming week.
their are 2 cracks in the 11tooth gear.
in return it also has nicked up my drive body.
I have contacted chain reaction cycles
has anyone had this issue? I torqued it to spec with a new torque wrench.
this really bums me out. it latterly only has a handful of rides on it and with this trip coming up I don't know what to do.
I cant find just the 11tooth gear. thought that I may be able to replace that before the trip.
could I ride the bike and just stay out of the 11 gear??
