Hello,

Quick one! After stripping down and regreasing my free hub I've managed to spectacularly thread the lockring on my ultegra cassette. I need a replacement lockring and washer asap as I'm cycling to paris next week. Will the likes of evans/je james or halfords carry these parts or is it it going to be an Internet order?

    Was hoping for a local stockist tbh but thx for the link. Was trying to avoid spending half of tomorrow morning calling around the bike shops! ;)

    It's probably more cost effective to get a whole new cassette and keep the lockring when you put the rest of the cassette on when your current one wears out

    They only cost a few quid.

    NB Just to note that you mean 'stripped the thread'. The thread is the helix on the outer diameter of the lockring.

    I have a spare one for an SRAM 10 speed cassette which I would gladly post to you for the cost of the postage if it will fit?

    Very kind offer but I rang JE James this morning and they ended up giving me a spare one for free! Great customer service!
