Mavic Cosmos
I have a set of Mavic Cosmos that I want to use on my bike with an Ultegra double 20 speed group.
I put the cassette on the Mavic and it appears to work fine, then I read that the Mavic Cosmo is Shimano 8/9 speed compatible. It does not mention the 10 speed cassette. Anyone see a problem with using this wheel? I have only taken it for a short ride but it rides much better than the wheels that came ont the bike so I want to keep using them.
Thanks
KL

10 speed Shimano cassettes will fit on 8/9/10 hubs. The only exception that I know about is 10 speed Dura Ace hubs, they will only accept a 10 speed Dura Ace cassette. Note, when using a 10 speed cassette on an older hub, a spacer is most likely needed or the lock nut may not get tight enough

What I should have said is that 10 speed cassettes fit on MOST 8/9/10 speed cassette hubs including aftermarket but not all. Check the following link for details.
