Swapping cassettes is quite easy. There's a lock ring that holds the cassette on the hub and you just need a tool that Riv sells. Dave says (above)all the kits are 9 speed but 8/9/10 all fit the same hub so if you have 8s cassettes you like they'd pop right on. Not sure about chain compatibility between 8 & 9 though. My stuff is all 8s but I've used 7s & 9s cogs within home grown cassettes that work fine, even index.
