New Bontrager rims..
I got some brand new Bontrager Slect rims off eBay for a great price. 3 questions......should I just by a new 105 cassette for the new rim and keep the old for a trainer rim? I have a 105 9 speed. Can I use a 105 10 speed? When I put on a new rim and cassette will I need to adjust the shifting or should it be plug and play?

1. If you want to do that you certainly can. It all depends on how much you think you will be swapping the wheels.
2. No. The 10 speed hubs are different.
3. If its a new rim/cassette you will probably have to do some adjusting. If its a new rim/same cassette you probably won't.

Why would there need to be an adjustment? I guess each cassette is a bit different?

Miller2 - The correct answer here is STILL no but more so because your 9 speed shifters will not shift the 10 speed cassette properly.
