Sorry ,excuse my ignorance but bought a wheelset from the forum which is shimano set up and need to fit a 9spd Campag cassette. Is this expensive ? Can I just change the freehub bit or do I need to replace the whole hub and get the rim re laced.
Thanks

    Some wheels you can change the freehub, others not. We would need to know what wheel you have.
    You can also get after market 9sp cassettes with Campag spacing but Shimano splines. I can not remember where from but someone here will know.

    Probably more cost effective to sell the wheels again and buy what you need from the forum!

    Ambrosio do 10 speed cassette with Shimano splines and campag spacing, not 9 spd though.

    Mavic and Marchisio are other options, unfortunately you will have to re-mortgage the house if you go for the Marchisio option.

    Also Highpath engineering make different spacers I think??

    I've got a Mavic cassette for sale that should do this.

    If you're local to me you can come down and try it if you like?
