  1. Hi,

    I found a good deal on some used Campagnolo Proton wheels with 10 speed
    Centaur sprokets, but my bike has 10 speed Ultegra. Will these work
    together?

    What if anything can I do to be able to use these 10 speed Campy wheels
    and cassette with my 10 speed Ultegra drivetrain?

    Thanks!

    Joseph

    You've got an excellent chance of shifting the Campy cassette in the
    Shimano system. I'd recommend a chain, other than the Shimano 10
    chain. The best choice of chain might be a Shimano HG 9 sp chain.

  3. Or a chain made for Campy 10sp, Campy, Wipperman, KMC, etc. as the Campy
    cogs are wider than Shimano 10. In fact the Campy cogs are the same
    thickness as 9 sp. For Campy it's just the spacing that's different from 9
    speed.

  4. I was in a similar situation some time ago and asked around on this ng about
    how to make it work. Apparently there are several solutions, each with
    tradeoffs. Do a google search and you'll come up with many postings about
    this. Good luck.

    Incidentally, I ended up going with a Campy drivetrain, so my solution
    wouldn't work for you.
