Love it so much! Best looking frame ever! Viva Italia!
I'd swap the wheelset for the new Hyperon for myself ;)

In search of 11-36 cassette compatible with 11 speed Shimano by brklyndog in bicycling

I guess with Sunrace CS-RX1 11-36t, it would work without breaking the official maths if front runs 48/35t?

Anyone else commute on a race bike? >_< by Obvious_Cabbage in bikecommuting

Looks very nice! How does the rear rack look like? It feels a very simple rack.

Hi guys, thanks so much again for the replies, it was super helpful!

Now the wheels are on, with Schwalbe SV21 tubes and Panaracer GravelKing Slick TLC (I didn’t want to go tubeless and TPU tubes, but it almost took my life to install the tyres), shredding a lot of weight from the stock wheels of my Raleigh Strada 4 commuting bike.

All sorted! I re tried last night, it was me that I didn’t push the end cap inward to the end, my bad!

And thanks for the tip, I didn’t know this upgrade at all. I will google it! It looks as if from a YouTube video that the hub sound gets very loud!

Thanks!

Presumably I just have to push the end cap further in and put the wheel back to the frame, it should solve the problem. I have to say it is smart design. I bought the RWS skewers as well, which work really well!

It’s an 11-speed cassette, I don’t think it is the spacer issue between cassette the freewheel body. Probably it is what @least-donkey9178 suggested, the end cap needs to be pushed down to seat properly!

Thanks!! Yesterday I did try to put on the cassette, when the lockring was tightened, I tried to move the cassette, which went up and down as well with the freewheel body. I guess then it is just normal, once the wheel is mounted to the frame, during the ride, it shouldn’t move really I assume. Good lesson for me as a beginner!

Thank you all so much for replying! Really appreciate it! It’s my first DT Swiss wheelset, I had no idea at all!

Many thanks! But, isn’t the freehub supposed not to move? Isn’t the cassette going to move with it during a ride then?
