Someone suggested that 11 speed cog spacing is identical between Campy and Shimano. Does anyone have any good knowledge of that?
I have 11 speed wheels but they are Campy splined.


From: https://bike.bikegremlin.com/1232/bi...compatibility/

"Campagnolo 11 speed cassettes have just slightly different sprocket thickness and spacing, compared to Shimano, so they can be mixed with Shimano 11 speed shifters and derailleurs (and vice versa), with index shifting working good. Provided that appropriate freehub body is used: Campagnolo and Shimano cassettes can’t fit each other’s freehubs – Campy with Campy, Shimano with Shimano.


You bought 11 speed equipment, set it up and adjusted it meticulously and then use a Shimano cassette on a Campy system or vice versa. That is beyond me. Sure can be made to shift but not without noise in all gears.

Well, I THINK I bought a set of Chinese 11 speed Shimano hubs that I THINK are interchangeable freehubs. Hopefully they will mount on my carbon clinchers with no problem and then I can put a 11-32 and GS derailleur on.
