Cassette Rubbing Frame

[Jimmy Welch]

The spacers also appear to have a gap between them and the adjacent cogs or is that an optical illusion ?

There....

Yup, you fited it wrong. May I suggest you leave spannering to someone who knows what they are doing, given how the 'other' thread went.

I have just had another look myself I agree there might be an I'll fitting spacer or two there I'll double check and reassemble

Sounds a bit noisy with the pedals turning, the indexing neds a tweak.

I was just wondering how many people really need an 11 but could actually do with a bigger sprocket at the other end of the cassette. Either that or smaller steps between their gears.

Given the OP has found his error, lets digress, Miche Primator cassettes allow you to pretty much choose what sprockets you put on it (and only replace just the worn/ skipping ones) so I went from having a "standard" 11-28 as the usual choice to running 12-29 on my main road bike.

Bear in mind I'm right at the limit of my understanding on this , I'm still putting vhs cassetes in the microwave

I have a 10-speed (Campagnolo) 12-30 cassette on my CAAD5 which has a 48 tooth big ring. The bike I keep at my sister's house in Devon is a 1x11, so that has a crazy-wide cassette , 11-42! Mind you, that only has a 42 ring so the top ratio is less than 4:1. A 42/12 would be a bit low for a top gear.

No, no, no - it should be Betamax for microwaved video!

spacer added and cassette reassembled

Given the OP has found his error

Moving away from microwaves (is that to obliterate data on the cassettes?), What was the error the OP 'found'? A missed spacer? How could adding a spacer move the cassette away from the dropout. Sorry to be dense: help me here.
It's an 11 speed cassette.

I couldn't quite understand that either.

The locking screw for the cassette was rubbing against the chain stay drop outs and tiny spacer in the freehub central axel locking nut moved the whole free hub and cassette a couple of mm away from the dropout and the point of fix for the whole rear axel is now centred on the central axel
