Need someone to solid rivet some bike sprockets together

The cassette you posted a photo for looks like the old Deore XT type. You can drill, tap, and countersink bolts for the carrier. Bolts are very strong.

Usually it's not the larger gears people want to swap around, it's the smaller sprockets that typically need adjusting for one condition or another. The nice part of the multipiece cassette is that you can swap the largest three as a unit, the middle three, and then the smaller ones are individuals.

Good luck and happy pedaling.

It is what I thought as well. Our Deore cranks shipped to Canada were both flavours: Threaded and non-threaded. On the non-threaded, we'd just drill out the fasteners and tap the holes to take the Shimano hardware, and put new chainrings on them - job done. cheap and effective.

That sounds perfect, thanks. Could well be an easier option than rivets if there's enough room for the heads of the screws.

You would be better off with stainless bolts: they are stronger, so you can use smaller diameter leaving more aluminum meat in the support.
