Another Cassette Question
I am upgrading all the components on my ATB to XT components. I ordered
a new 9-speed M-750 cassette. My question is, do I have to put a new rear hub on the bike as well made specially for the 9-speed or will the 9-speed cassette work with my current hub (which has always had a 7-speed cassette on it)? Thanks. - Noel -- rec.bicycles.off-road is moderated by volunteers.

Thanks. You need a 9 speed hub, or at least a 8 speed. I think the 9 speed and 8 speed have the same offset but with different gear spacing. The 7 speed has same spacing as the 8 speed but with less offset (and stronger?) -- rec.bicycles.off-road is moderated by volunteers.
