    Bought a new set of wheels, Shimano freehub but I run campagnolo.
    Is there ant company that make Shimano/sram freehub compatible cassettes that the individual cogs can be separated to allow me to replace them with campag spacers

    Depending on the wheels you might be better checking if you can get a campag hub body to replace the shimano. I've come across this on a few wheelsets (mid range fulcrum from memory but it's been a few years). Checked a couple of cassettes here (11sp 105 and 11sp Ultegra) and both had the last few larger cogs bonded and the others loose.

    You run 10s Campag............or 11s?
    Presuming it must be the former ? If you run 11s and have an 11s Shimano hubbed wheel, just but a Shimano Cassette and it is fully (ie 100%)compatible with your group. Perhaps you may have known this, in which case apologies

    Cycleops/powertap hubs use a Novotec type freehub body (axle size varies so you will need to check, 15mm is B2 type i think). A quick search should show up a few and whats involved, just get the Campagnolo one. No tools needed for replacement they just pull off/ push on.



    BTW. A few years ago it was possible to get the type of conversion cassettes you spoke of originally (Miche & Ambrosio made them) . With the advent of 11 speed these are no longer being made and have now become pricey.

    I believe Ambrosio made a cassette with shimano splines but with campag spacing.
    Never used one so cant comment on how they worked.
    I dont even know if they are still made!

    Thanks for that info. Will pull freehub off and measure it up.
    A few seasons ago I had an Ambrosio cassette but alas no longer available
