All of my bikes with cassettes tend to be 34-50 or 36-52 and paired to 11-28 cassettes. I used to be into 11-32 but found In rarely used the 32 cog and the slightly tighter spread of the 28 just suited me better.

In didn't vote. Instead, I am posting so that I can advocate for only one tooth jumps on the small end of the cassette where the % change from gear to gear is the biggest from one to the next. Big jumps in tooth count on the big end aren't a problem because of how the ratios scale.

An 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18, 21, 24, 28, 32 might be popular with strong 34-50 riders who would spend the bulk of their time in 14, 15, 16, 18 or just buckled down for climbing mode.

I don't expect such a cassette to ever be made, but why not throw it out there, right? 🤷
