Slipping/moving cassette

Hi

I run an Ultegra 10sp on Mavic Kysiriums with the correct spacer at the hib side. Recently the cassette comes loose and rattle on uneven road surfaces, I dis-assemble and tighten lockring but after a couple of rides it's loose again. The cassette also sprockets move clockwise/anti-clockwise in the hub. The cassette is quite old, but the teeth are not worn.

a) Can you get a 'shim' so it tightens more?
b) Can worn cassettes start to 'move' on the hub before signs/evidence of wear on the teeth?
c) Is it anything to do with Shimano cassette on Mavic hub?

Baffled
IT'S NOT THE FEAR THAT KILLS YOU; IT'S THE HOPE.

    Sounds like your lockring's knackered, assuming you're torquing it up tight enough. Try getting a new lockring from your LBS and see if that solves it.
