Road Bike Cassette Wobble

I have bike for 10 months and did over 2800 km on it.

Road bike cassette wobble. It is very much like this video on youtube except the bike i own is nowhere near as good or as pricey as the bike my bike is like a 150 200 bike and the wobbling on my cassette is much worse i would describe it as oscillating. On my road bike with shimano stuff the rear cassette with all the cogs wobbles when i free wheel it. However 3t does make an xd r 12 speed road cassette and are using it on the 3t strada team aqua blue pro tour team 1x12 road bikes. I have 3 rear wheels 2 bikes and have rotated wheels around in an attempt to isolate the problem.

It is quite soothing to watch like being rocked in a cradle. My bike isn t making noise and it isn t shifting bad just has this very visible wobble sometimes i think it s when the chain is in a bigger cog the biggest 3 are all mounted together on the cassette spider the rest are loose cogs put on one at a time. Hi everyone i ve noticed when i am doing stuff such as gear indexing and my bike is up on the stand that there is a slight wobble or oscillation to the smallest two cogs in the cassette. I had to install a 1 8mm spacer between the xg 1180 cassette and the hub to use it with 11 speed sram force 1 shifters.

Any suggestions please leave a comment. I noticed that cassette is wobbling after winter deep cleaning. Notice how it starts at the handlebar and then affects the whole bike. And here s a typical example below of it happening spontaneously out on road.
