I run 8 of 10 on a Grand Bois 120mm cassette hub. My typical setup is to start with a 12-30 Ultegra 10 speed cassette. The largest 3 cogs are on a carrier (24-27-30) and I keep all of those. The other 7 cogs are all loose and they are 12-13-14-15-17-19-21. I remove the 14 and one spacer. I remove the 17 and 19 and one spacer and add an 18. What I’m left with is:
12-13-15-18-21-24-27-30 That’s not the only way to go about it, but it’s what I’ve done so far. I use 10-speed indexed down tube shifters and a 10-speed rear der. I just turn the lower limit to block out two clicks.
