I just swapped the 9-speed cassette on a RB-T CL frankenbike for an 8- speed spare I had lying around (cassette and chain). I was having all kinds of problems with ghost shifting and holding the gear. Eight speed works like a dream with the friction ... it's like a new bike.
Switch to 8 - you won't regret it.
