Shimano 8- 9- 10-speed compatibility?
I just picked up a used pair of Spinergy Rev-X 8-spoke carbon fiber mountain
bike wheels. The wheels came with a Shimano 8-speed cassette. Can I replace this cassette with a 9-speed cassette? I checked the catalogs and I see 7/8-speed Shimano hubs, 8/9-speed Shimano hubs, and 8/9/10-speed Shimano hubs...this is a bit confusing! :-) Checking the Spinergy website, they discontinued the Rev-X in 1999. They say that the Rev-X used an Ultegra 8-speed freehub body. -- Thomas David Kehoe Work: http://www.casafuturatech.com Not work: http://www.myspace.com/43380153 |

Yes. You can also use a 10-speed cassette. JT **************************** Remove "remove" to reply Visit http://www.jt10000.com **************************** |

Yes, since Spinergy began, they were all, 8s HG, road or MTB, so they are all hyperglide and shimano compatible...for 7/8 or 9s or even 10s, if ya had 10s MTB shifters.

I tried putting a 9-speed cassette on but the smallest cog didn't have enough "bite." Aren't all 9 speed Shimano mounted with a retainer ring and not the cog? Ron |

I tried putting a 9-speed cassette on but the smallest cog didn't have enough "bite." That wheel was made as a shimano hyperglide, 8s freehub body, to accept a shimano 8s cogset. shimano 9s and 10s cogset spline pattern didn't change so you can put a shimano 9s or 10s cogset onto that wheel. -- Thomas David Kehoe Work: http://www.casafuturatech.com Not work: http://www.myspace.com/43380153 in article , Qui si parla Campagnolo at wrote on 6/12/06 6:21 AM: Thomas David Kehoe wrote: I just picked up a used pair of Spinergy Rev-X 8-spoke carbon fiber mountain bike wheels.
