I just recenly purchased a Campy compatiable pair of Reynolds Solitudes. These wheels are not supplied with a lock ring. I've purchased Campy wheels w/ lock rings (duh!) and Mavic wheels w/ lock rings. Of the Campy compatible wheels on the market which ones are sold w/ rings and which are not? TIA

Alternatively, you can get a Campy hubset, that comes with a Campy lockring! Build the Campy hubs with db spokes, a nice rim from a variety of mfrs and be done with it. What's not to like?

Campagnolo lockrings are cheap and universally available, IRD also has a new one to fit. Why not just buy one? Of course bfd is right - Campagnolo hubs are, I admit, a much better idea. -- Andrew Muzi www.yellowjersey.org Open every day since 1 April, 1971

Most are not..go to a decent bike shop and buy one, or like others have mentioed, have a good wheelbuilder build you a set of wheels around Campagnolo hubs..light, reliable, cheaper by far with comparable hubs.

Thanks but that doesn't answer my question,
And this does not either. But since you have other Campagnolo wheels about, try one of those lockrings on the Reynolds wheels. Should/ might work just fine. That is what I did when I acquired a Shamal rear wheel at a great price. Sans lockring.
Usually, suppliers of Campy compatible hubs supply a lockring. Campy supplys the hubs with lockring and cassettes, excepting 11t ones, w/o w/o lockring.
I've forgotten which brand, supplied a Campy compatible lockring that used a Shimano lockring tool.
Camp lockrings are very costly ~$20 but you can get generics for maybe $10 or less.
