Building up my ROS 9 and have a bit of an issue with the chain getting snagged (the gap isn't wide enough to allow it) on the hanger when in the smallest cog..
The wheel slides in/out of the dropout fine, there's no resistance when tightening the thru axle & the hanger is straight..
These wheels came off my Specialised Camber where issue did not occur, reckon it's some Specilaized hub alignment thing going on?
Thoughts?
 
Sounds like the wheels are 142+ spacing. It's a specialized/roval proprietary thing. Hub is still 142 wide but they push the cassette out another 2mm or so to widen the hub flanges for increased stiffness. Of course, the frame has to have the clearance built in. Looks like yours doesn't unfortunately.
 
^^^ This, some framed work, some don't:

ah yep, it says 142+ on one the hub, do you thing it'll be ok to use until i get some new wheels? It's not like I hope into the 10t cog veery often on the trails..

If you stay out of the 10t then probably.

You'll need to adjust the derailler limit screws when you install another wheel.
