EDCO Racer Hubs

Posted on
  • I have had a set of wheels built using these NOS EDCO Racer Hubs:

    I want to fit a Campagnolo Veloce 10 speed cassette.

    The cassette fits fine on the freehub splines, but the lockring supplied with the cassette does not fit on the freehub. If anything, I would say the diameter of the lockring is too large.

    Please advise.

  • 11 and 12-up Campag Cassettes have different lockrings, could be that?

  • Have you already checked that edco didn't supply their own lockring with the hubs?

    What diameter is your current lockring?

  • I bought the hubs as NOS (from Mercian), and they didn't come with a lock ring.

    I have e-mailed EDCO but as yet have not had a response.

    Couldn't find my vernier calipers yesterday, but I have the morning off tomorrow, so will have a good look and get measuring.

  • Just had a quick measure.

    I reckon the internal diameter of these hubs, where the lockring will screw into is 25.55mm.

    By comparison, I took the same measurement from a 10 speed Campagnolo Hub, it is 26.7mm.

    That's why the Campagnolo lockring won't fit.

    Any ideas?

  • Campagnolo have changed their lock ring thread sizes repeatedly. I know @jambon had trouble with this.

    Basically you need to find the right size, so probably worth a visit to Condor, maybe asking a true Campag expert like Rohan Dubash (http://doctord.co.uk/) if he knows where to get stock, etc.

  • Cheers.

    I am on hold to an EDCO distributor, might pop over to Edwardes before lunch.

    He's very active on facebook too

  • EDCO distributor is being thick.

  • I think your best chance is to find a bike shop that has a spare. Time consuming though.

  • Condor might be worth a shout?

  • I will go to Condor one day next week.

    Thank you all, for your help.

  • After much fucking about, and many visits to inferior bike shops, I've just been to Condor.

    Sorted within moments.
