Mavic Aksium Rear Wheel ED11 hub and 9 speed campy
I bought this rear wheel from Universal cycles on a good price its a mavic aksium wheel 2011 with a black ED11 700cc clincher. The hub is a ED11
Question, Will this wheel work with a 9 speed cassette?
thanks for your help
This is from the manufacturer
Mavic makes swappable freehub bodies for most of their rear wheels so you're not permanently married to either SRAM/Shimano or Campy. You can start off with one body with its unique splines, and you can switch to the other fast.
The bodies are known in Mavic-speak as FTS-L, or Force Transfer System-Light. The body is made of steel, as you'll currently find on all of Mavic's road wheelsets. In the recent past, most have had the FTS-L as well, save the Aksium.
The M-10 is the Shimano/SRAM-compatible body.
The Campy-spline version is known as ED-11 aka Campagnolo-11. ED-11 is the ED-10, just with the addition of a .55mm spacer that slides onto the cassette body and nestles on flange at the spoke end of the cassette, so it sits between the cassette body flange and the tallest cog of the cassette. If you're still running Campy 10-speed, you just take the spacer off before installing your cassette.
