Be more concerned with durability, aluminum just will not last in this application (regardless of coatings, etc).

I have a KCNC Ti/aluminum/ scandium cassette in ten speed Campy 11-23 that weighs in at 116 grams including lockring. I've put about 4,000 miles on it so far and it still shifts very well and no skipping. Expected life according to the manufacture is 6,000 miles and from where I'm current at in miles I think it will last that long.

HERE IS WHERE I PURCHASE MINE! (http://search.stores.ebay.com/Professional-Cycling-Discount_cassette-wheelset_W0QQfclZ4QQfrppZ30QQfrtsZ0QQfsubZ9QQftsZ2 QQsaselZ19405978QQsatitleZcassetteQ20Q2dwheelset)

The full aluminum will only save 10-15g and wear out much, much faster.

Like Juanmoretume said, the KCNC Alum/SC/Ti cassettes that I carry have a 6,000 mile expected life. I put over 3,000 on one already and it shifts perfect.
I would say most people get 3,000 -5,000 miles on them.

Here is a KCNC Campy 11-21 that I have-

KCNC makes them for Token, so they are all the same. If you need one let me know.

A little OT here, but does someone make one that has a 27 or 28 tooth on it. I just finshed getting a killer lightweight wheelset built and need a campy cassette with that on it for climbing(old and slow uphill). I have only seen a 26 or 29 option from campy.

Only in a 9spd 12-27

Only in a full alu version. 11-27t

Karbon, who makes the aluminum version. It is a cassette I would use very infrequently, so I think aluminum would be OK

Probaly TOKEN. I think somone makes them for TOKEN. Not KCNC that I am aware of.

KCNC does make a 11/27 and 12/27 10 spd, but only for Shimano.

any thoughts or opinions from the gallery on the ceramic coated aluminum cassettes from stronglight?

Perfect. Just what I needed. Thanks. Now to find one!

26 tooth is as good as I can find in Campagnolo.

dirt boy or anyone else with miles on on these cassettes
how is the shifting performance of these aftermarket cassettes compared to the factory campagnolo or shimano pieces. some of them (the KCNC pictured above in particular) seem to lack the elaborate shifting ramps that campy and shimano have worked so hard on.

I'm using the Campy version and it shifts very well. I've seen indexing issues over at weight weenies and it seemed to be mostly with the Shimano version although one of my team mates has about 4,500 miles on his in the Shinamo version and claim it shifts and indexs perfect.
