    Hi All and Happy New Year,

    I'm about to get project groupset underway, to complete the project I need to sawp over a shimano freehub to a campag, I'm looking for something in the 40 - 70 Euro price range, does anyone have any recomendations ?

    I was looking at this: http://www.chainreactioncycles.com/Models.aspx?ModelID=28830

    The wheel it's going on to is a Bontrager X Racelite 2009 ( I think it's 2009) and from what I can find online they used a DT Swiss 240 hub ( I have no idea what the 240 means) I guess I should check this out when I get home tonight.

    Can I assume the freehub must be compatible with the actual hub ?

    Thanks

    Ahh, my old wheels!

    Good luck with your conversion project. I take it you have a new 'bling' Campag compatible set of wheels?

    Maybe have a look at this before you consider changing hubs on the X-lites if there going to be a second pair.

    They are indeed your old Wheels, not new wheels on the way but a new groupset (Chorus), so taking a veloce groupset off one bike and on to the other so we are aiming for all out campag.

    Thanks for the below but it sounds a bit messy for me, would prefer to keep it all campag and not have to worry about my pitch and parallelogram :confused:
