Campag wheels for a Shimano groupset

vermooten

Hi,

I so want a pair of Campag Bora Ultras, they look so nice - but my bikes all have Shimano components. What's a guy to do?

Change the hub? Use a cassette that can operate on both?

Cheers,
Andy

You can get Boras with Shimano hub can't you?

aha - I knew it used to be the case but all the bike shop web sites I looked at just show them as being for Campag hubs only, eg
http://www.wiggle.co.uk/ProductDetail.a ... ar%20Wheel
the key word here is 'discontinued'

According to the Campag tech specs for 2008, they still have HG hubbed Boras.

Perhaps the new batch of 2008 wheels haven't come through from Italy, and they've run out of 2007s in th UK.

when wiggle write 'discontinued' against a product I think it just means that they haven't any left - not that it is really discontinued..
