While removing Shimano 105 cassette, I noticed a spacer sitting on the hub between the largest sprocket and the place where spokes attach to the hub (not sure how is it called).
I checked the 105 exploded diagram and there is no spacer behind the largest sprocket so I was wondering, what is it for? Is it just a spacer the wheel manufacturer put there?
Edit: Sorry for not including this earlier: the cassette is indeed 11-speed (11-34) and it's a road bike.
