What Steel said.
My road bike has 10 speed cassette with lockring from 9 speed cassette, 10 speed chain, 10 speed rear shifter, 10 speed rear hub, 9 speed rear mech, 3 speed front shifter, double chainset, 3 speed front mech, 8 speed little ring and 9 speed big ring. And an MTB BB. Works fine.

sound, cheers

Yeah, but surely the cassette and the [i]shifter[/i] will have to match (because the detents in the shifter mech will have to correspond with the distances between the cogs - which are smaller with 9sp than with 8)

yeah dont worry, im just swapping out an old 8spd mech with a newer 9spd mech, shifter/cassette stays the same.
