Sorry to reopen an ancient thread, but at least you know I did do a search
I have a DA 8-speed hub that I have now retrofitted with an ultegra 10-speed cassette. It works fine.
The problem is that I now want to clean the cassette, but my Park cassette tool will only go in a little bit and so it's pretty difficult to get enough torque on it to remove the cassette. Is this because of the 8-speed DA hub, or do I just need to try to shove the cassette tool on a little harder (I'd probably have to use a hammer to get it on any tighter)?
The shop was able to remove it when they repacked the hub for me before winter, but I'd sure like to be able to get it off myself.
Thanks.
