Am after a high ratio cassette, 10 - 32 or similar. Is there such a thing?!

    Nothing lower than 11 that I know of. Plenty of 11-32 though. Just get a slightly larger chainring - does the same thing.

    You can't fit smaller than an 11t on a standard freehub body. Hope are working on a 9-36 10 speed one with an integrated freehub body if you have a Hope rear hub, but otherwise no workable solutions.

    So yes, as Cooldad says, change your chainring.

    Capreo cassettes are only available in close ratios anyway, so you lose bottom end, and have to reduce chainring size, thus totally defeating the purpose of the object!

    DH use only really.

    You can mod the capreo cassette to suit with higher gears from other cassettes.
