    To all you gravel types, I bought a SRAM 1170 11-36 11 speed cassette, thinking it would fit my new hubs, but Shimano have pulled a fast one on the r7000 hubs, and changed the freehub design (their normal 11spd hubs 5800/6800 etc are fine), fit it does not. Like a complete dick, without thinking there may be a fit issue, I threw the packaging away, and shop I got it from won't let me return it without original packaging. So said cassette is for sale, unused, brand new, just not in a box, posted UK for £40.
    Cheers. Jon

    Edit: not for sale, managed to get cassette on hub.

  • Really?
    The blurb says it would still support 8,9,10 cassettes so don't really understand why it wouldn't fit 11 speed.

  • The Shimano hg700 cassette is offset on the bigger rings, so maybe the r7000 freehub is slightly shorter?
    I don't know, but the hg700 fits ok, and the SRAM doesn't, the lock ring would nearly be touching the inner side of the dropout.
