With one of the spacers missing the cassette was just loose enough to give me the sensation of a skip every so often, especially under power. Seems strange because all of the literature you read on 10 speed cassettes on 11 speed hubs say only one spacer is required but I needed two. May not be your issue, but you could simply see if your cassette has any play in it by rocking the large cog? Maybe the cassette locknut needs tightening?
Wow that must of took some time to figure out, yikes!! Yes I have to sets of wheels, "Dura Ace C50's" and "Shimano". Dura Ace has an 11-28 cassette, Shimano 11-25. I added 2 extra links to the chain to accommodate the 11-28 cassette.
