Quick compatibility question - Mavic Ksyrium conversion to Campy
Sorry that I can't find the answer elsewhere on the forums! I have a complete Campagnolo SR 11 speed groupset ready at hand. The only thing missing is the wheels. Now I also have a set of Ksyrium SLs lying around. They're currently equipped with a 11 speed ultegra cassette. Instead of buying a set of campy wheels, I thought i'd just use the ksyriums and change the freehubs. Now my question is: do I need a Mavic freehub, or could any freehub design for campagnolo work? I found on Marketplace a Campagnolo freehub which has a Zipp label. Could this possibly work or is this a no no? Thanks!

I don't know the answer to what freehub bodies would work but 11sp Shimano and Campy are supposedly the same cassette spacing so you might want to try mounting the wheels with the Ultegra cassette and try it out.

If you decide to experiment cross brand, please do test it carefully on a stand before riding it.
And this guy might have the hub you're looking for.
