Want to make my sons bike more capable than the 28 tooth cassette provides** A: If the 24 inch bike hub is a freehub and uses an 8 gear cassette, it should work. This will not work with a freewheel hub. This cassette also requires the correct Microshift derailleur and shifter. Recommend the derailleur with clutch and a crank gear with 30 - 34 teeth. I have a 26'er with this setup and it works very well. **Q: Does this come with a spacer? Thanks!** A: No spacer provided. Fits fine on normal 8 speed hubs. **Q: Will this cassette work with Shimano 8-speed derailleurs and shifters?** A: Works with mine **Q: What type of hub? Threaded or spline?** A: Works with Shimano HG series hubs which have splines. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great part for a fair price *by K***B on 8 August 2026* Great cassette, Worked perfectly for my 1x8 drivetrain conversation ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Größere Übersetzung *by K***L on 12 January 2025* Gutes Bergfahren mit Hänger. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Good seller *by J***R on 20 April 2026* This review is more about the seller than the item. I realized after I bought it, that I should have bought the 9 speed rather than 8 speed. I was able to return it and get a refund without any issues. Regarding microSHIFT, their equipment is good quality and is known to be reliable. ## Frequently Bought Together - microSHIFT | Acolyte H-Series Cassette | 8 Speed | 12-46t |Black | ED Coated - microSHIFT | Acolyte Rear Derailleur | 8 Speed | Medium Cage | with Spring Lock Chain Retention - microSHIFT Acolyte Right Trigger Shifter - 1x8 Speed, Acolyte Compatible Only --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/490544893-microshift-acolyte-h-series-cassette-8-speed-12-42t-black](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/490544893-microshift-acolyte-h-series-cassette-8-speed-12-42t-black) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-08-22*
