The Saint Posted May 25, 2007 Share If I purchase a Campag wheel will a Shimano cluster fit on it or are the Campag specific?Also bought myslef a Fizik Arione Wing Flex seat yesterday, guys advised me that it is one of the better ones, was I suckered or is this true? One thing I do like about it is that it has a special clip on the back for the Fizik light to fit into, got me one of those to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goofs Posted May 25, 2007 Share Yes it will accept a Shimano cluster. The saddle good but is more an individual taste and each has their own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
javadude Posted May 25, 2007 Share Not so sure about the saddle, but Campag wheels are available with shimano freebodies. I'm not sure if they are available locally though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdoardoBianchi Posted May 26, 2007 Share Check out TotalCycling or Comobike to see if the campag wheels comes with the option of Shimano fh bodies (I'm sure they do). Otherwise enquire with J&J Cycling or CWC.Good chance to upgrade to Campag - I'm sure a couple of guys here can help you think of a way to get it past the wife!

I'm not sure she knows the difference, did a handlebar upgrade a month back, she did comment that they looked different, I said nope always been like that and that was the end of the conversation. As long as everything is black I am sure I am able to slip it past her. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

shaunh Posted May 26, 2007 Share I, too, have just bought the Aroine. Went for a ride the other day, and only after the ride realised a have a new saddle and found it very comfortable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saint Posted May 26, 2007 Share Rode the saddle for the first time today. Different, I have never rode with a saddle the shape of the Arione before and it was a bit strange at first, other than that very comfortable and highly recommended.

AndreZA Posted May 28, 2007 Share Saddle is a personal choice. At the moment I enjoy the SLR I got from The Russian. But need to get use to the thin padding after using a sofa for 5 years. Remember, a saddle is only as comfy when you wear good shorts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
E1A104 Posted May 28, 2007 Share Hey MuxMan, how you doing? When we seeing you at Suikerbos again? You can most certainly get Campagnolo wheels with shimano freebody, just need to order the correct model number!! E1A1042007-05-28 11:07:26 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember I hold the title of "Worst Cyclist" E1A104 I will be out at Suikerbos with you guys the weekend of the 16th and 17th of June, hopefully with a few mates so we can have a nice slow group ride.
