Are all Shimano 9 speed cassettes compatible?

Are all Shimano 9 speed cassettes compatible?

Shimano 8- 9- and 10-speed cassettes/hubs are fully interchangeable for wheels with steel Freehub bodies. The only parts that are different in any important way between the 8- 9- and 10-speed systems are the shift control levers.

Are all 9 speed cassettes the same?

Cassette sprocket-tooth widths Up through 9-speeds, all cassettes use very nearly the same width of sprocket teeth, and will work with 7/8 or 9-speed chains. Old Uniglide 6-speed cassettes have larger spacing between sprockets, and like older freewheels, have the same shifting issues.

Is there a 9 speed freewheel?

This is a DNP-brand “Epoch” 9-speed freewheel. 11-34t for wide range. Since 9-speed hadn’t been dreamed of when freewheels were invented, it’s a little bit too wide. On the plus side, this is as good a freewheel as has ever been made, and will last a long time and work with your modern shifting system.

Can I fit a 10 speed cassette on a 9 speed hub?

The most you should need to do to allow a 10 speed cassette to work on most 9 speed hubs is install a spacer behind the cassette to make sure the cassette seats tightly. You can put a new 10 or 11 speed cassette on any of the older 9 speed hubs.

Are 8 9 and 10 speed cassettes the same width?

For the Shimano brand, their 9-speed cassettes have an extra cog added to the 8-speed cassette, while the overall width remains the same. The same thing goes for the 10-speed where it still has the same width as an 8-speed cassette. This makes the 10-speed slightly narrower.

Will 10 speed chain work with 9 speed cassette?

In most cases, a 10-speed chain will operate just fine with a 9-speed cassette because it’s slim enough to move up and down the rear cogs without rubbing or skipping.
