Hello all. I have a campagnolo 8 Speed Hub and cassette. Is it possible to convert this to a singlespeed if I buy a spacer kit and break the 8 speed cassette up and use only one of the gears (cogs) from it.

Thanks

Yes, in theory ... but, the "kits" are designed for Shimano freehub bodies, and if the spacers have splines, they might not mesh with the Campagnolo freehub.

You can use the existing spacers, of course, from your cassette.

If you don't need the tensioner, then you can buy some PVC tubing whose inner diameter matches the outer diameter of the Campagnolo freehub & cut your own spacers.

Wheels Manufacturing made spacers for Campagnolo freehubs to convert them to Shimano spacing ... so, those would obviously fit.
