A practical choice for commuters, recreational riders and home mechanics replacing a worn 7-speed Shimano-compatible HG cassette.
The Shimano CS-HG41-7 is a 7-speed HG cassette designed for dependable replacement and servicing of compatible drivetrains. Its 11-28T spread runs from an 11-tooth high gear through to a 28-tooth low gear, giving you practical gearing for flatter roads, general commuting and moderate climbs.
Shimano’s HYPERGLIDE system uses precisely positioned shift ramps and tooth profiles to help guide the chain between sprockets. In everyday riding, that means more controlled, responsive indexed shifts when you change gear under normal pedalling loads.
The sprocket sequence is 11-13-15-18-21-24-28T, with seven steel sprockets for a durable, serviceable drivetrain component. It is compatible with IG and HG chains, and uses the 7-speed HG spline interface. Check your existing cassette, chain and freehub standard before ordering; this is the right choice when your bike is built around a compatible 7-speed HG cassette system.
