Have put a new Shimano cassette on my bike, but now seems to rattle. Took wheel off, shook it, it rattles. Loosened off lockring, inspected, re-tightened, and STILL rattling.
It even seems that the cassette doesn't fit properly on the splines!.

Does anyone have any idea's/ info so this stops please. :cry:

    Check there wasn't a spacer fitted behind the old cassette - it may still be stuck to your large sprocket.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..

    There was a spacer, and fitted that too, or was I not supposed to do that?

    Incredibly old thread im hi-jacking here but ive just installed a 105 cassette with the rear spacer and all of the other spacers and im getting a rattle, Taken off and on a few times but no joy. Can i use another spacer from my rival cassette to double up? Got no time to try til next week.
