will the new shimano cassette work with campy without any changes?

nope.. sorry. spacing is different.

the spacing difference isn't THAT great. it will work, it just won't shift with the precision it would normally

 

[Arsbars]

so i lied. it works, but shifted like ass, and wore out my chain 10x faster. I wouldn't do it unless your diehard in doing it.... and don't care about drivetrain wear.

What do you think of this?

good idea or not

Is this because you have shimano wheels and want to use them on a campy equipped bike? If yes, that cassette from branford bike would be perfect as long as you have a Shimano 8 and 9 speed hub, according to the site. I didn't know that shimano changed its freehub body when it went from 9-10, or maybe the site has just not been updated, maybe a more shimano familiar biker can clear it up, I'm a compagnolo man.

On the site you posted there is also a compatibility list of popular wheels you can check to see if yours are on it.

Im building up a wheel for my touring bike and want to use a Phil Wood hub. That hub is only Shimano comp., but will take 8, 9, and 10. Ive rode Shimano and didnt like it at all. If I have the choice I will always ride campy.

Branford bike says that it is fully compatible with Phil Wood hubs, so seems like you are in luck. I have ordered through branford bike before and the shipping was nice and speedy.
