What is Helix?
E13's Helix cassette is a great alternative to Sram's XD cassettes with super high quality engineering and the option to customise colours. The real clincher is the fact you can replace just half the cassette when it wears out saving a significant amount of money and waste so also good for the environment as well as your wallet! It's nearly always the smaller sprockets that wear out first and with Helix you can replace just this section. Oh, and you can choose cool colours...
E13: "It’s in our DNA to solve problems.Helix components are engineered to bridge the compatibility gap between SRAM™ and Shimano™ components,ensuring versatility and flawless performance. Future-proof your bike with e*thirteen Helix."
The Helix Advantage
The HELIX R 12 Speed Cassette is an upgrade to any SRAM Eagle™drivetrain, with more range than any other cassette on the market. The 9 tooth cog lets you step down onechainring size while keeping the same top end gearing and provides not only better ground clearance, but an overall lighter drivetrain. The aluminum one-piece 42/50 tooth cluster is easilyreplaceable so riders can keep their steel cluster for multiple seasons and freshen up granny as needed without
buying a whole new cassette.
Helix R is also available in a 325g 9-46t
11 speed configuration that’s compatible with both Shimano™ and SRAM™
Drivetrains. Service and Tech Support Unlike SRAM Eagle™, Helix R cassettes have replaceable gear clusters.
That means ongoing service and replacement costs will be less than half that of SRAM™ cassettes. Compatibility
Works flawlessly with Shimano™ and SRAM™ 12s drivetrains despite the challenges in designing for the different cog spacing and chain behavior. Additionally, if your wheel has a SRAM™ XD™ Driver and you want to upgrade to Shimano™ 12s, you not only save money on the cassette, you don’t have to spend the extra on a new hub driver either.
