General Information
Beside the execlusive finish, the Dura Ace EX splined sprockets have the same design as the 600 or other UG casettes. The only difference is in the tread sprocket, which has smaller inner diameter than other UG smal sprockets. The reason for this, that this was the only way to attach a 11-tooth cogwheel on the casette body, instead of 12. Anyway 11 T sprockets were quite unusual, and are still very rare to find.
