Just got a set of Flow mk3 on Shimano hubs (Zee rear, XT front) for my 26+ experiment.
Got the WTB tyres on and up tubeless first time, discs fitted fine (even with a Centrelock to 6 bolt adapter on the rear) and came to swap the 10 speed SRAM (with Hope T-Rex) cassette over from my old wheel to the new one.
BUT…
Can’t get the cassette lockring to bite into its thread on the freehub. Haven’t got any lockrings with longer threads in my bits box.
Never had a Shimano hub before – is this a known thing trying to fit SRAM cassettes to Shimano hubs or am I just unlucky?
Also, what are the options for a fix? Try a Shimano cassette? Does anyone make longer lockrings? Hit stuff with a hammer until it fits?
One of those small but really irritating build issues…
