If your 10-speed bar end rear shifter has the D-ring on it, you can set your rear shifter to friction so it will shift correctly with virtually any cassette you can hang on your wheel.
ok thanks- the guy at the used bike shop who sold me the shifter said 9 and 10 speed cassettes are spaced the same. Guess not! I only paid $1 for the cassette in a going out of business sale so I wasn’t
married to it.
It doesn’t have the D ring, just a screw 🙄
No problem fitting a 10 sp cassette on my existing Ultegra hub, correct? I have 8 and 9 speeds on there (and a single cog with lots of spacers)
