the mech hanger screws touch the lock ring
Are the screws projecting past the inner face of the hanger? If so, putting a washer under the hanger screw heads would probably solve that part of the problem.

Yes they do by about 2mm. The last cog on the cassette is definitely closer to the dropout than it is on my other housemates caad though he's using SRAM on fulcrums. But I thought fulcrum and campag hubs are very similar. It's just that the axle nuts seem to be only protruding past the cassette by 1 or 2mm and so the cassette is very close to the frame once tightened up. OLD doesn't really matter I don't think since once the skewer is on, they're pulled in or pushed apart to the correct width anyway Shirley

my housemates Caad7 build (thread on here) is having a minor difficulty.
His rear wheel is a campag khamsin G3 and it fouls the drive side drop out. The cassette is on correct and has no play, doesn't need spacers but the mech hanger screws touch the lock ring and in the smallest gear, the chain rubs the frame.
Comparing visually to my shimano wheel, the nut holding the axle in sticks out further past the cassette on mine than his though I know they're different types of hub. Also without a skewer, there is still a couple of mm between the width of the axle and the dropouts so I think they need to be spaced a little bit. Any ideas?
I can post pictures if it helps
