Hi there, I finally got around to install my 11-42 SROAD 11-speed cassette on my gravel wheels with Novatec 11-speed Shimano hubs and can't get it to fit without some wiggle room. I know the 11-42 SRAM cassette needs a spacer on 11-speed hubs. Is that also true for the SROAD? I am not sure if I just didn't fit the smallest cog in the right way or if it needs a spacer....has anyone got the same cassette and can help?
Cheers
Lars

Ok, I might be able to answer my own question I just installed it with a spacer and it fits nicely, also didn't have to adjust the derailleur at all from the previous SRAM 11-36 (no spacer). So I assume I did the right thing and it needs a spacer...but please let me know if I did something stupid
