  • I’m always confused about which 5-6-7-8 speed cassettes fit which freehubs and which chains are interchangeable. I just happened to have some cassettes and hubs out yesterday. This is a 9-speed SRAM cassette with the biggest gear taken off the back, so 8 gears on a 126mm wide 7-speed freehub. Didn’t know that would go on! I might have to get a set of 9-speed indexed dt shifters to give this a go!

  • That works up to 10 speed shimano/sram on Shimano 7 speed hubs, you'll need the same speed shifter for it to work.

  • 8 is as many as I could fit on that freehub with the 9-speed spacers. I’m guessing the 10-speed must be narrower again? I’m quite happy with this because it means I can squeeze 8 gears instead of my current 6 into a 126mm rear with no re-dishing and (what looks like) no clearance issues.
