I am the owner of a six speed indexed Dura Ace equipped
Masi from the 80's. I'm considering switching my freewheel
to a Campy Super Record 6spd alloy to save weight. Will the
spacing on the Campy be the same as the spacing on the Dura
Ace so as to work with the indexed shifter and are there
any other compatibility issues I should consider (chain,
chainrings, etc...). Thanks for any response. Raven

In my experience, the Campy freewheel is too wide to work
with a Dura-Ace 6s index system.

It will be spaced correctly but that FW is for friction and
I doubt it will index very well. It doesn't have the teeth
prep(like twisted teeth-DA) that is required for good
shifting PLUS, these alloy FW may weigh a wee bit less but
it isn't going to last long.
