Installing A Cassette

[capwater]

Got some used Ksyrium Elites and want to put on an Ultegra 9 speed cassette. Looks pretty basic and have the special wrench, but have a couple of questions. The hub has what looks like a spacer/washer. I'm assuming it should be placed between the largest cog and the inside of the hub. Also, is there anything in the way of lubrication necessary besides basic chain lube?

Thanks, y'all....

Hello Richmond,

I have never done that before but when I was thinking about upgrading to ultegra on my old bike I came across these pages. Maybe you can find your answer here.

If not try calling the guys at 3sports at 288-4000. They are good mechanics.
