D DMC3000 Old School Hero Apr 5, 2016 #1 I have an Hope XC hub from (I guess) around 2000 and looking at running a new, 10 speed Shimano 105 or Ultegra cassette. Will it work or are there compatability issues in terms of widths?

legrandefromage Bin Monkey BoTM Winner PoTM Winner GT Fan Feedback View Apr 5, 2016 #2 Should be fine. I had a ten speed Sram on a Dia-Tech 8spd rear hub at the weekend. No issues.
M mattr Old School Grand Master Apr 5, 2016 #3 Is it 10 speed road that needs a spacer? (Or is that 10 speed MTB?)
legrandefromage Bin Monkey BoTM Winner PoTM Winner GT Fan Feedback View Apr 5, 2016 #4 Mine was a PG1070 with the alu lock ring and part alu spider. No spacer was required.
M mattr Old School Grand Master Apr 5, 2016 #5 Think it's only some of the shimano cassettes that require it. Usually (always?) come in the box/bag with the cassette.

D DMC3000 Old School Hero Apr 5, 2016 #6 OK so it's more likely the cassette would be slightly narrower than too wide. I can work with that!
