Shifting/noise problem I need some help.

[Steve Knight]

This is a bit weird so bare with me. Ok I have a campy hub
with campy cogset with shimano spacers (8 speed) and At
first I had sachs ergo shifters and now I have bar ends. I
also have a newer DA RD. Ok this setup worked fine for about
2k I had the rim go bad and to use a cheaper shimano wheel
for about a month. Well I get the new rim on and the
mechanic ( a really good one) greases the hub and checks it
out. Well I put it on and off I go it sounds like the RD
needs adjustment. Well that is no biggie. I take it to the
stand then ext day and get it perfect. But once I start
riding it is bad again. Plus I had the brakes perfect and
now they are rubbing. Well I check and the hub is a bit
loose I get him to fix that and shifting is better. But it
still sounds like it is a bit off. But it is perfect on the
stand. So any idea's what's causing it? He said the campy
hub is in good shape. I am thinking the chain may be a
problem. And I can check that today. The chain may have a
bit more the 2000 miles on it. I am a heavy rider so that
may have caused more wear.

Chain may be it.
Measure the wear and learn more about chains:

Derailer adjustments:

If those 2 things don't care for it, you may have some spacing issues that are not compatible with the shifter indexing, rear derailer, and the cog spacing.
