I have bought four 11-speed Prestacycle (prior version, not the current Pro version) stainless steel cassettes (12-28 twice, 11-34, and 11-25) for < $100 each. The smaller three are each lighter than their Shimano Dura-Ace counterparts which have 6 stainless steel cogs + 5 titanium cogs. BDop cassettes are aluminum alloy and are thus even lighter, but aluminum wears faster.
