Convert Shimano 8 Speed Hubs to Campagnolo 8 Speed

The Wheels Manufacturing Camp-SH8 spacing kit will allow you to convert a Shimano 8 speed cassette to a Campagnolo 8 speed cassette.
Your new, 8 speed cassette, will shift perfectly with Campagnolo 8 speed rear derailleurs and Campagnolo 8 speed shift levers.
You do not need to change the freehub, or as it is sometimes called, the cassette body for this kit to work.
This kit comes with 5 alloy spacers. Simply replace the Shimano spacers with the Wheels Manufacturing spacers.
For best shifting use a Rohloff 8 speed chain.
Proudly made in the USA by Wheels Manufacturing.

Convert Shimano 8 Speed Hubs to Campagnolo 9 Speed

The Wheels Manufacturing Shift-4 spacing kit will allow you to convert a Shimano 8 speed cassette to a Campagnolo 9 speed cassette WITH 8 cogs. The Shimano cassette body is shorter than Campagnolo's cassette body. That is why only 8 cogs will fit on if the cassette is spaced for Campagnolo 9 speed.
Your new, 9 speed, 8 cog, cassette, will shift perfectly with all current and older Campagnolo 9 speed rear derailleurs and Campagnolo 9 speed shifters. You may NOT mix Campagnolo shifters with Shimano derailleurs or Shimano shifters with Campagnolo derailleurs.
You do not need to change the freehub, or as it is sometimes called, the cassette body for this kit to work.
This kit comes with 5 aluminum alloy spacers and 1 thin shim.
For best shifting use a Rohloff 9 speed chain.
Proudly made in the USA by Wheels Manufacturing.

Part #	Description	Normal Retail	Our Price USD$	You Save

Convert Shimano 9 Speed hubs to Campagnolo 10 Speed

The Le Tour spacing kit will allow you to convert a Shimano 105 9 speed cassette to a Campagnolo 10 speed cassette WITH 9 cogs. The Shimano cassette body is shorter than Campagnolo's cassette body. That is why only 9 cogs will fit on if the cassette is spaced for Campagnolo 10 speed.
Your new, 10 speed, 9 cog, cassette, will shift perfectly with all Campagnolo 10 speed rear derailleurs and Campagnolo 10 speed shifters. You may NOT mix Campagnolo shifters with Shimano derailleurs or Shimano shifters with Campagnolo derailleurs.
You do not need to change the freehub, or as it is sometimes called, the cassette body for this kit to work.
105 9 speed cassettes are riveted or bolted together but may be easily taken apart. Ultegra and Dura-Ace 9 speed cassettes have cog clusters that are permanently pinned together and thus will not work with the Le Tour spacing kit.
This kit comes with 7 aluminum alloy spacers and 1 black steel spacer.
Place the steel spacer behind your largest cassette cog. Then simply replace the Shimano spacers with the aluminun alloy Le Tour spacers. No spacer is required for the first position cog; it will work perfectly as is.
For best shifting use a Campagnolo 10 speed chain.
Proudly made in the USA by Le Tour.
