Yes, the 2018 Cannondale Cujo 24 is an 8-speed bike, and you can upgrade to this kit right away.
STX was a three-by-eight (three-by-eight) team. The same cassette format of "8/9/10" speed has been used by most Shimano hubs for the last X years. As a result, I believe it will be successful. BUT. If you intend to keep the front derailleur and crankset, this method will not work. This set- up was created with a single front chain ring and no front derailleur in mind.
This is what happens if you don't change your front chain ring(s). There are 11 tooth sprockets in both clusters. br>br>As long as you plan to pedal the same number of times per minute with either set, your top speed will remain the same. br>br>Depending on which set you buy, you'll be able to climb steeper hills with less effort. Assume that climbing a specific hill necessitates a certain number of pedal turns due to the 42 tooth rear. br>br>If your rear gear is 46, you'll have to do more pedal turns to climb a specific hill. br>br>So, with the 46 tooth rear, you'll have to pedal more times to get up that hill, but you won't have to push as hard on the pedals. br>br>As a result, it will appear that climbing the hill with the 46-tooth cluster, rather than the 42-tooth cluster, is easier.
Yes, it is included; however, it was not necessary to include it, and it was not pegged.

While I would not install for advanced downhill or racing, if you are an intermediate mountain bike rider, gravel or trail rider, this is a very good quality and cost effective way to convert to 1x from a 3x8 or 3x9. To install any drive train successfully, you'll need some garage bike mechanic experience or at the very least be mechanical and watch a few YouTube videos (Park tool recommended). The group also includes the Deore 6000 SGS rear derailleur, which according to Shimano's website only supports 36T cogs, which is correct. There is a drop extender included, but that is not the intended use with this derailleur; instead, you must purchase and CORRECTLY install the Wolf Tooth Goatlink 11 (not the Goatlink 10), which is specifically designed to extend any Shimano SGS derailleur geometry to support up to a 46T cog With this kit and the Goatlink 11 (along with a narrow-band radio), you can make a narrow-band radio. I was able to convert a 3x9 Trek Dualsport into a very dependable, quieter, and lighter gravel/trail bike using a wide chain ring.
I'm looking forward to getting out and trying out this groupset, which is a significant upgrade over the nearly ten-year-old 9-speed I was previously using. The installation, on the other hand, was a chore. To begin, there were no instructions, which I initially accepted because I had previously removed and reinstalled all of these components for cleaning purposes. On the larger gears, it turned out that the derailleur and cassette were in contact. I discovered that an adapter was included, but I had no idea what it was or what I needed it for because, as I previously stated, there were no instructions. The most serious issue was the chain. Because it's a KMC chain, a missing link was included. I've used them before, and the old one was the one that was removed to make room for the new one. I was able to line them up and get them through the holes, but the links would not slide and lock together. I tried by hand, with spreaders, and with pliers, as per the instructions in the chain box. In my attempt to get them on, I broke one of the links. After that, I fiddled with them and discovered that they wouldn't lock in even with the chain. I ended up buying another set of links, but that just means I won't be riding for a while longer.
Despite the fact that my derailleur couldn't handle it, I installed this cassette on my road bike using the Wolf Tooth Roadlink. My derailleur (a Shimano 105, RD-X) is a Shimano 105, RD-X. The Shimano 5700 has a capacity of 39 teeth, according to Shimano's website. For those unfamiliar, the difference in the number of teeth in your cassette's smallest and largest gears is added to the difference in the largest and smallest front gears (chainrings) to determine your bike's capacity. This is a 11-minute cassette. My chainrings are 50-toothed and my chain is 42-toothed. So (42- 11) (50+) 34) = 31 16 = 47, an increase of 8 teeth over my derailleur's 39-tooth capacity. capacity of the teeth br>br>As a result, I should have purchased a long cage derailleur capable of handling that load. But it works fine as long as I remember not to shift into either of the two largest cassette gears while I'm in the front chainring. If I do, the derailleur on my bike will most likely be ripped off because there isn't enough chain for those gear combinations. It's not an issue for me because I never cross chain in that direction. br>br>I created a YouTube video that explains how to set up the system. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post a link here, but if you look up "Installing an 11-Inch TV" on YouTube, you'll find it. You should be able to find it by searching for "42t Cassette on a Road Bike. " If you're still having trouble, go to Youtube and search for "Maynard the Miser," which is my channel, and it will appear in my list of videos. br>br>If I could just hold the bike to the wall, I think I could climb El Capitan with this cassette. ha ha. It lowers my lowest gear combination to 21 gear inches, almost as low as my mountain bike; I only want gears this low on my road bike because I plan to put bikepacking gear on it and use it for ultralight touring, where I may be climbing for hours at a time with luggage. I'm not getting any younger, and I had minor knee problems during my last tour, so this should come in handy. br>br> Since installing this cassette, I've ridden about 75 miles and am very pleased with how it's performed.
My Shimano XT DEORE 11-speed Shimano XT DEORE 11-speed Shimano XT DEORE 11-speed Shi With this, you can get a lower climbing gear for those steep climbs. The extended link provided did not work, but it fit perfectly and worked perfectly. It's offset, which means two gears are lost and the 42 cog is obstructed. On Amazon, you can find the Wolf Tooth Components GoatLink, which is a great bolt-on and ride option for this setup. There are no changes to be made. I wish I'd done it a few years ago!.
I bought this cassette for a 1x conversion on my bike, and it went on without a hitch. I also like that it came with a RD mount extender! Put on the link and only had to adjust the rd a little. Shifts are smooth and quiet. In the 42t, the cage position was perfect. Overall, it's a great fix, but it's not perfect: the jockey wheel is further away from the cogs than I'd like, but that's only because the chain would rub against the chainstay in the 11t when dailed in. It's possible that my frame design is to blame, but it's worth noting. So far, I've only driven about 25 miles on it, but it's been fantastic! Of course, it appears to be in good condition. Update. br>br> The derailleur hanger was made of cheap aluminum, and a weak screw broke and jammed into my wheel while I was out on the trail. Please, JGBIKE, don't sell a cheap part like this that will cause thousands of dollars in damage if it breaks! Because of the adapter's failure and a sheared cheap bolt, I had to buy a new wheel, derailleur, chain, hanger, and other parts, which cost me a lot of money!!.
