|   Mavic positioning wedge w/ Dura-Ace 9sp? | shrEd
Jun 26, 2003 7:41 AM | | I bought some Mavic Cosmic Carbones recently from eBay and I'm building it up w/ a Shimano Dura-Ace 9sp cassette...I just realized last night that I didn't get the Mavic positioning wedge w/ the wheelset and I'm pretty sure I need it...
Can anyone verify that it is indeed required for a Shimano 9sp setup? Also, does anyone out there have an extra positioning wedge from their Mavic wheelset that they are not using and are willing to sell?
Any other workarounds/suggestions welcome...
Thanks in advance,
Ed |

What is a spacing wedge?
