Dear All,
I wish to purchase a wheelset. The rear hub is designed for Campagnolo 11 speed.
Can I run a Campy 11 speed cassette with my existing Ultegra 6800 11 speed drive train?
I can purchase a Shimano free hub body, but the cost is prohibitive.
Many thanks

Yes, Campag/Shimano 11spd drivetrain components work fine together.

More expensive in the long run than keep having to buy Campagnolo cassettes?

I do it the other way around, which makes more sense in my opinion: Campagnolo groupset with Shimano wheels. I think the shifting even improved.

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
