Without much success in search mode, I find myself asking you guys if a Shimano 9-speed cassette will work on a Campy hub?

Mikey,
What are you trying to accomplish? Do you have a Campy setup and just trying to make use of a Shimano cassette you have hanging around? Or do you have a Shimano setup and have a Campy-hubbed wheel you are trying to use? I am not clear why you would need to use a Shimano cassette on a Campy hub since the price of both brands are about the same. On the other hand I can understand wanting to use a Shimano hub and cassette with Campy shifters and ders to save the cost of a new wheel in a conversion. According to Sheldon Brown, this will actually work just fine, by the way.

Raymond

Mikey,
OK, here is a possibility if this is something you just have to do. Campagnolo makes a freehub body that fits their hubs that is splined for Shimano cassettes. Branfordbike.com has them for $70. I guess it would make sense if you wanted to use one of the fancy Campy wheelsets like Nucleon, Electron, etc., but prefer Shimano shifters, etc. Go to

Everyone,
Thank you for taking the time to reply to my query. The situation is that I have access to a decently priced set of Nucleons, except they've got the Campy hubs and I run Shimano 9spd.
Again, thanks,
Mike

In that case,you can buy a campy 9 speed cassett and a spacer kit to convert it to shimano 9 speed spacing.Check www.branfordbike.com It's the wheels manufacturing shift 7 kit.Check the catalogue under cassettes.
