[Closed] Mavic road wheels - Shimano / Campag compatibility

I've been offered a pair of Kysirium Elites which are currently on a bike with a Campag groupset. I'm running Ultegra & wondered if these wheels will accept my Shimano cassette?

Cheers.

Campagnolo cassettes have a different spline fitting to Shimano so the chances are you might need a new freehub to fit.

New Mavic freehub needed to swap compatibility.

Cheers, that's what I thought.
Would it be possible to do a straight swap over of the two freehubs (both mavic 11-speed)?

Isn't the 11s sprocket spacing so similar between Shimano and Campag as to make them interchangeable?
If you can, pop the wheel in and just see if it will index. Got to be worth a try....

You just need to buy a Mavic HG11 [url= https://247cycleshop.com/Mavic-HG11-Spline-Road-Wheel-Freehub-Body-for-Shimano-/-SRAM.html ]freehub body[/url] and swap it over

It is normally a 5 minute job

the cassette spacing is basically the same on all 11 speed, but campag cassettes are so expensive that you could probably buy a shimano one and a freehub body for the same money, and be quids in at the first cassette replacement
