I have a new set of fulcrum 5 wheels that I want to switch from campag to Shimano. The Shimano freehubSeems pretty expensive for a basic enough set of wheels, anyone know if any cheaper freehubs would fit or any alternative options??

    Pretty sure the cassette spacing on Campagnolo and shimano are the same for 11 speed.
    Buy a cheap Miche 11sp cassette for campagnolo freehub.

    If you have 11 speed Shimano on the bike why not just fit the cheapest 11 speed Campag cassette to your new wheels? The spacing's the same.

    Or is a Miche cassette cheaper?

    ETA: having looked yes, it probably is. Being a 9/10 speed Shimano user I didn't realise how much a Campag 11 sp cassette was :shock:
