Campag Wheels

curlyrobert

Opposite to the normal threads, I have Ultegra g/s is there any way to get a pair of Campag hoops to work? Looking at the Zonda's perhaps as an alternative to my usual Ksyrium thoughts..

Yes, some Campagnolo wheels can be ordered with an HG freehub that is Shimano and Sram compatible.

Your luck's in...the Zonda is the cheapest Campag wheel that has the Shimano compatible freehub option.

Thanks, feel like I should have known that was the case, just been doing some research on the Zondas and lots of people claiming that they flex a great deal so I am going to stay clear.

Anyone have any experience with the DT Swiss 1850
or the DT Swiss Mon Chasserale

I used to have hugi hubs on my mtb and they were exceptional but needed quite a lot of tlc, are these the same or are they a little more resilient than the old hubs?

That Zonda flex is contradictory to what is claimed by the Bikeradar staff. Can't say I notice a problem any more or less than other wheels I've had, but then I'm not that heavy.

I agree that DT Swiss hubs are great (also have them on MTB) but I can't imagine for a minute that road wheels are going to be better sealed (maybe the same).

i recently blew 3 spokes out of a rear vento cheap wheels i know but my new fulcrum 7s seem much better made :shock:

I've found my Zondas (also on Ultegra) to be great and not had any problem with flex. I am very light, but I would have said they were among the stiffer wheels I have used. AS has been said, you can buy a Shimano freehub version. Just be aware that you have to use a campag lockring (supplied) and the supplied one is not compatible with 11-xx cassettes. You can buy one that is if you really need 52x11 though.
