The 9-10 speed Campagnolo freehubs also come with an aluminum freehub body
-- at least the ones I have do. After a few years they are showing dents
from the sprockets. I wonder if this is worse with loose-cog cassettes
than with those that come one-piece -- I've always used loose-cog
cassettes since that gives me more options.
At any rate, the dents that have appeared don't seem to affect
performance, at least not yet. But then, Campy freehubs have much deeper
splines than Shimano, and they went to the deep splines when they went
from 8-speed (steel freehub) to the 9-speed.
