Is this set of wheels advertised as being both Shimano and Campy compatable? I have a set of Bontrager Racelites that have a shim that is used on the inside with the Shimano hub/cassette to maintain a proper chain line. My read on this is that the wheel is already dished for Campy and the freewheel hub can be changed to carry a Campy cassette which is wider than the Shimano cassette and doesn't use a shim.

There was a discussion a couple of weeks ago that touched on this: http://www.bikeforums.net/showthread.php?t=179395
