Hi All...
Just got my new steed and changed my wheels off my old bike onto it, which was 10 speed
So fitted my fulcrum racing quattros (take 11 speed) onto new bike and it wont go onto 28 tooth ring.. do I need the shim that was on the 10 speed as its a 11 speed cassette on new bike or just the limit adjusting .

    You'll need the single .9mm spacer on the hub and adjust the limit screws accordingly.

    If you're going from 10 to 11 speed, remove the thick(1.75/85mm) spacer to make room for the extra sprocket. Then adjust the limit screws to allow the RD to move over onto the newly added extra gear/sprocket.
    So, leave off thickspacer (1.75/85mm), also leave off 1mm spacer that may have been present on old bike with a Shimano 10 speed cassette.
    Put simply, 11 speed cassette = no spacer(s).

    No extra spacers/shims are needed for any 11 spd cassette(see table). So any spacers that were behind the ten speed cassette on your Fulcrums (when they were on the old bike) need to be removed, if you want to be able to use the 28 T cog.

    You've fitted an 11 speed cassette onto the Fulcrums right? If so, no spacers, adjust limit screw, sorted!
    FFS! Harden up and grow a pair :D
