I have an old (1995 I think) set of Campy Shamal wheels. Here is the weird thing... The cassette
body appears to have a Shimano spline pattern. Shimano cogs fit beautifully, and the after
market titanium 9 speed for 8 speed hub cassette it had on them when I purchased them fits my
Shimano 9 speed wheel perfectly. Another thing.. The only lockring I was ever able to make fit
was Shimano as well.
A couple years ago, I bought a standard Campy 8 speed cassette to try on them. Wouldn't fit. I
bought one of every Campy lockring I could find, same story.
It has been suggested to me that this might be a Record Ti hub. Upon looking, I found that Branford
says these were made with a shiny alloy cassette body. The cassette body on this wheel is black.
Can anyone help shed light on this for me? I posted a couple of pictures (below), and would be more
than happy to take more if it will help someone explain this to me. Warning, the pictures are pretty
big (for details sake).
