Ran this for 5 seasons. Seamless shifting. Even in race situations.

Kind of expensive to replace.
 
Review
Great longevity and shift feel.

Pros
Light, shifts great, makes every stock bike feel better (unless they have an XTR stock). If you run a 9 speed drivetrain... you should probably be running this (or the XTR) cassette.
 
Cons
It doesn't come stock on most bikes (it's cheaper for bike co. to instal the SRAM PG970's)
 
Review
Find a gear ratio you like, instal it and ride it until your legs fall off.

Pros
Lightweight. Shift great. Replaceable cogs. Offered in two different sprocket ranges.
 
Cons
NOT cheap but you won't be disappointed either.
 
Review
A sweet shifting, good looking, and very lightweight cassette. Lasts longer than Shimano's lower end products but still needs love after the ride to keep it performing like the day you bought it. You can easily find one in the $60 range so it's not going to break the bank either.

Pros
Light, smooth flawless shifting
 
Cons
expensive
 
Review
If these could be like 50 bucks cheaper I would be very happy. As it is I get about 1 season of riding out of one. I am not a maintenance freak though, so maybe if you clean your chain more than me it will last longer.
