Doable - a 9 gear Shimano Cluster on a 7 speed Shimano Exage hub?
Is it possible to put a 9 gear Shimano Cluster onto a 7 gear Exage cassette.
That is will the spacer and cogs fit (ie. be the right diameter for the body) even if you have to leave off 1 gear? |

You'd have to replace the freehub or settle for 8 nine speed cogs and use nine speed chain.. http://www.sheldonbrown.com/k7.html#up7 -- zk |
