Can someone please help me!

I bought a set of Fulcrum Racing 3s (with an 8,9,10s shimano compatible freehub) at the beginning of last year and whilst moving house managed to lose the lockring :oops: Having now tried 2 different campag lockrings on the advice of the LBS without success I would really appreciate any help the forum experts could give!

I am wanting to use a 10s 12-23 cassette and the standard lockring appears to be the right size - however with the Fulcrum's being an offshoot of Campag I really don't want to b&*^er things up without being sure! Also the info on the manufacturers website is somewhat confusing - with different models/years saying contradictory things :?

Ta v much!!

Pete

    Excuse my ignorance, but by lock ring do you mean the large threaded ring that effectively clamps the cassette onto the hub? If so then if its a shimano hub on your R3's then you use a standard shimano lock ring. I have fitted two different rear cassettes to mine using the existing ring and spacer off other wheels that I previously used. Works fine.

    Indeed I do!! Have not dared to use the standard shimano one though - partly because the documentation that came with the wheels suggested that a Fulcrum specific one was needed; and partly...cowardice :wink: The standard indeed does lokk the right size but 'feels' a little tight when trying it in the freehub. Sounds as though I need to be a bit braver!

    Thanks very much for that Steve!
