Why are you putting yourself through this? Campy hubs are terrific, but there's nothing uniquely wonderful about them. Why not just make it easy on yourself and pick something good that's Sram compatible right out of the box? DA hubs are awesome, for example.
I would get some DA hubs but those are almost twice as much as the Record hubs. The DA hubs are even more than the DTs and CKs.

I have Shimano RS-10s. I am quite a heavy rider and race quite often. Whenever I'm out of the saddle, the wheels flex and the brakes rub. They've come untrue a few times already. I'm looking for smooth and fast rolling wheels that are stiff and bomb proof and I believe this set up will do that for me.
