Can someone offer any pearls of wisdom as to why I might be getting a little bit of play with a Shimano 10sp 11-38 cassette,just been replaced and i think there really shouldn't be any play at all when lock ring is tightened?. The play is only very very slight but definitely there. Wheel is a easton xct and as far as I can tell, both wheel and cassette are undamaged?
is this normal or not???
Thanks

Is the cassete moving on the splines ( it shouldn't realy ) or is the whole freehub body moving ? If so the bearings in it might be a bit worn.

Sounds like you're missing the spacer that should go on before the cassette.
Needed one in the past for Mavic and Easton hubs
