    Any experience with Campagnolo 9 speed Mirage cassettes? They are
    listed as having a galvanized coating instead of the nickel chrome
    finish on all of the higher range cassettes.

    Sure, not as pretty but they work just fine and dandy. They will last
    as long as Veloce, just check yer chain.

    Does Mirage 9 come in 13-28 like Veloce? If so, how much?

    12-23, 13-23, 13-26

    In England, Mirage 9 is about 5 Pounds cheaper than Veloce 9. I've
    never seen anyone advertise it on the internet in the US.

    Should have mentioned you can easily get the 13-26 cassette and then
    substitute the 28 cog from a used 13-28 cassette in place of the 26.
    13-14-15-16-17-19-21-23-28. Been running this combination since 1999
    on one bike. Short cage rear derailleur shifts the 23-28 shift fine
    enough on the two times a year I make it. QBP also sells a Campagnolo
    hub compatible 28 tooth cog for 9 speed.

    Mirage sprockets become stained and unsightly after a while, but still
    work well.

    No, 13-26 is the largest.
