I have just bought a Shimano 105 Groupset for a bicycle, I need to get a cassette for the wheels I am going to build which I have Campagnolo Hubs, so assume a Campagnolo rear cassette is needed?

Will there be any compatibility issues with using a Campagnolo rear cassette with a Shimano rear derailleur?

Spacing is slightly different. You could use a jtek problem solver to change cable pull or a conversion cassette to get perfect shifting.

I have see these, if a Campag cassette didn't work full i presume I could sort it out with a spacer kit from here

no just the splined section the cassette sits on, it can be changed on some wheels

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:
![](https://www.google.co.uk/images/srpr/logo4w.png)
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
