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?

L 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?)
L 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!
