Is this possible?

I just searched EBAY for a 7 spd hyperglide cassette, and got 1 (one) result, this one:

I thought these things grew like leaves on trees! I've finally decided to make the leap into the modern age--all my bikes, except one are currently UG, and I run up against a brick wall. I'm notoriously poor at coming up with the proper keyword, but....

Doesn't seem right last time I looked for 7 speed hyperglide and hyberglide compatiable type cassettes on Ebay I found over hundred. Just type in 7 speed cassette and about 200 hundred will come up most of them hyperglide.

People too lazy to type in HYPERGLIDE, or don't have a clue...

Bikes: Too many to list here check my signature.

Depending on the ratio you want I would try LooseScrews and see if that have it.

that is crazy, you can still buy the cheepo black ones at your LBS and they should cost less than $35. We stocked them in Canada and used them all the time on old MTBs. There are tons of mountain bikes from the 90s on the west coast and many need 7 speed cassettes to keep them rolling.

I have never had a problem finding Hyperglide freewheels. Cassettes are obviously a different story.

In your world, I'm sure this is true. In mine, however, 7 spd doesn't exist, and never has, according to the knowledgeable waitrons at the one decent LBS in town. It's shocking what can't be had here. Last week it was 26" tubes with Schrader valves.

I just searched ebay for "shimano 7 cassette" and got a bunch of options. Hyperglide as a search term might be too 'industry'.
