Ordered pro lite bracciano wheels for my road bike, and a 9 speed 12-25 Ultegra cassette - all from wiggle. Arrived and cassette wont fit on freehub. The ridges if thats the right word on the freehub have a step up in size about 1cm from the near end so that the cassette can only fit 1st cm or so then wont slide onto freehub the rest of the way. The wheels are boxed and labelled shimano fitting...
I've e-mailed wiggle but havent got back to me yet (weekend I guess)
Any ideas gratefully received

It could be a 10spd hub body, in which case you're stuffed. Shimano changed the cassette body shape so that 10spd will only take 10spd.

Do the wheels have a Campag hub by any chance?

Hub is Pro Lite, shimano fitting. Suspect the 10-speed business is correct. Bloody Wiggle didnt say 10speed only on the website. Thanks for replies
