It doesn't have to be XTR M950, exclusively.. to get you down the road..
Two LBS's sent me home with "close enough" cones. I knew they weren't, and they didn't seal up well enough to last long. Too short, too long, offset from cone bearing surface to gasket isn't correct with not enough play room in seating the freehub dust shield... Putting 6-7k miles on the bike each year, I don't want to have to be repacking the rear hub every other weekend.
