Hey everyone,

As the title suggests I am a little stuck in my lack of knowledge. I have a set of 8 Speed Campag wheels that I am wanting to build up with a 10 Speed Groupset. Is this possible?

Thanks :)

Should be possible - try a test fit of a cluster, and see what you need to adjust, as you may need to make changes to the number and sizes of the spacers on the axel , and re-adjust the dishing of the wheel.

I have turned a 6 speed wheel into a 9 speed before, so its theoretically possible.

Campag moved away from 8 speed years ago. It may not work. If you search on the Campag website, there is a section that shows all the compatibility between their various parts over the years.
