Can you use Campagnolo cassette with Shimano freehub?
Yes. Campagnolo wheels are compatible with both Shimano and SRAM components. In order to use Campagnolo wheels with any drivetrain on the market, Campagnolo produces two kinds of freewheel bodies: one specific for Campagnolo drivetrains (from 9 to 11 speeds) and one for non-Campagnolo drivetrains (from 9 to 11 speeds).
Can I fit Campagnolo cassette on Shimano hub?
If you have a Campagnolo cassette, you require a Campagnolo freehub, they are not compatible with Shimano or Sram.
Do I grease the freehub when installing cassette?
You can use chain lube on your freehub body before installing the new cassettes and you can also put a few drops into the cassette before threading the lockring through it. Don’t forget to grease the inner part of the chain, as this is where the cogs get their lubrication from.
Can I use Shimano 11-speed cassette with Campagnolo?
In other words, Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo 11-speed cassettes work just fine on each others’ drivetrains. So, one way to use an old 10-speed wheel with an 11-speed drivetrain is to install a Campagnolo freehub body and Campagnolo 11-speed cassette on it.
Are Campagnolo and Shimano 11 speed compatibility?
This has never worked well in the past; Campagnolo has always gone its own way, and their drivetrain components are generally not compatible with Shimano or SRAM. For example, a Campagnolo cassette will not fit on a wheel that is designed for Shimano/SRAM cassettes.
Can I swap Shimano freehub for Campagnolo?
The basic difference and reason why we need to change freehub bodies between groupsets is that the splines on the body are a different pattern, so a Campagnolo cassette will not slide onto a Shimano/SRAM body. Similarly Campagnolo will not fit on the other.
Should I grease the free hub?
So a little grease on a steel freehub certainly can’t hurt when it comes to corrosion protection. Bottom line, not a big deal. If you do regular maintenance and pull the cassette now and then in the process, leaving the freehub body dry shouldn’t hurt a thing.
Do I need to grease free hub?
When the bike is pedaled, the pawls lock onto the ratcheting teeth, and the freehub bearings take very little stress. Because of this, bicycle grease is typically not required inside a freehub. Most manufacturers recommend liquid lubricant for the inside of the freehub.
Does Campagnolo cassette work with Shimano chain?
If you have a 10-speed Campagnolo (Campy) cassette, a 10-speed Campagnolo chain is the first option for compatibility. Shimano and SRAM 5- to 11-speed cassettes and chains will be compatible with each other, regardless of manufacturer recommendations.
Are all Campagnolo 11 speed cassettes compatible?
Campagnolo 11-speed shifters and derailleurs from 2015 onwards are not backwards compatible with 2014 or earlier versions. Nevertheless, 11-speed shifter-and-derailleur combinations from both eras are equally compatible with any 11-speed chain and cassette.
What kind of oil does my free hub use?
Most freehubs have pawls, and for most pawls you want oil. Mavic officially recommends their own oil, which is a 10 weight (10w) mineral oil. Other manufacturers typically recommend a light weight oil—we’ve heard TriFlow from some, Phil Wood Tenacious oil, bore oil, sewing machine oil. Zipp uses a light grease.
