Tech Tuesday - Cup and Cone Hub Basics

I wouldn't though, their tolerances are much tighter than the tolerance of even xtr or dura ace races and at bicycle speeds we cannot take advantage of their thermal properties. Ceramic bearings will often be grade 10 or higher, but shimano doesn't polish their races past grade 25, equivalent to the grade of loose bearings they use. Use quality stainless steel grade 25 bearings for really nice hubs and grade 40 for everything else decent.

clapforcanada,I know following traditional thought that 10 speed cassettes will clog more easily than 9, but it's not the case with srams 10 speed stuff. look at how the big cogs are drilled out, it seriously aids in clearing mud.

No disrespect to the seller But there are 2 tell tale signs that that cassette is worn out, you shouldn't be advertising this as almost new. The width of the teeth vary from cog to cog, (compare gear 4 to 8, notice the difference in shape and width of the teeth? Secondly the teeth on gear 8 still holds the factory marking and shape of a cog, whereas 4 is worn right down and you can see the wear and tear on the (now rounded) edge of the teeth.
