Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them.

8-Speed Campagnolo freehub on new wheelset

Can I transfer my old 8-speed Campagnolo freehub onto a new modern wheelset, discarding the freehub that comes with the wheelset?

What wheelset would it work with?

Thanks!

Doubt it very much. But Campy 8s spacing is the same as Shimano 7s spacing - you could get a wheel with 11s Shimano freehub, and fit a 7s cassette with an extra cog spaced at 5mm.
