I absolutely had to re-space the Shimano-compatible cassettes in every case, lest the cable adjustment need a different setting for each end of the cassette.
I sanded down plastic and aluminum cassette spacers as needed, on the basis of repeated road testing.
And as for using the 6s shifters with a 7s cog stack, what will keep the shifter from slipping down from the largest to the second-largest cog when there is no detent? Is the rider supposed to hold their thumb on it or change to frictioin mode whenever a steep hill threatens...
EDIT- this is all incorrect other than SIS 6s = Accushift 6s and Accushift 7s is different from everything else.
Was I incorrect about what I posted?
Basicaly I stated that:
as far as spacing Shimano 6s = Shimano 7s = Accushift 6s.
Accushift 7s is spaced differently.
You can use 6 out of 7 of the Shimano cogs.
If any of that is wrong- I'll edit my post(s).
