Basically, I didn't want to ride my tubular wheels on the trip I'm doing, so borrowed a Miche wheelset. Because my bike was 11-speed Di2 I took the 10-speed cassette off the borrowed wheels and popped the 11-speed cassette on, but when I did the locking up it seemed to strip a thread - like it only had a slight grip in there. So to get it working I had to take the smallest cog off and throw a small spacer behind the largest, then pop the locking on. It's now on a few threads hand-tight.
Sound safe? Or death trap? It's a Miche hub. And if I've ballsed it up I'll have to buy the owner a replacement free hub.
