My frame is 135 mm OLD, and thus uses mountain rather than 145 mm tandem hubs, these the DT Swiss 240s disc brake.



Thus the DT 540 tandem might be the first place to look, as DT appears inclined to offer Campy 11 spd on its hubs. It might be difficult to find an answer, because there probably haven't been too many to try.



Edit:

I spoke to Paul (in Marketing) at DT Swiss. He confirmed that a 540 tandem will take a Campy cassette using a
conversion kit, and this will work with both 10 and 11 speeds.
