This problem has nothing to do with your frame.

Also check the cassette to be sure it hasn't been misassembled in some manner.
Um Dave....I have Daytona 10spd...and literally with cassette on - I have the exact same as shown in the OP original post - 1 to 1.5mm of axle end left past the last cog. (2mm at best...)

Not all frames set to 130mm are by default 10spd ready...if the seatstays aren't flared out before joining the dropout - OR - if the seatstays and chainstays aren't scalloped adequately - you can run into the issues described by the OP.

This is why on older 130mm frames and 126mm frames that have been cold set to 130mm...you have to do a final test - i.e., pop the cassette equipeed hub or wheel into the frame and visually check BEFORE you can claim success moving to 10spd.
