Andrew,

I understood you to say that the 11 speed spacing of both Campy and Shimano were identical. Is that the case? Shimano high end Cassettes are a hell of a lot cheaper than Campy and I have another set of 11 speed levers that I picked up for about half price. Add a speed and suddenly everything else is old fashion.

I think they're close enough* but you need a different wheel
or cassette body and absolutely the limit screws need to be
reset when changing wheels.

*haven't tried it and don't actually know. CA spacing is
slightly wider in high gears. On a CA CS-11, a Shimano
2.35mm spacer slips into the first three spaces but not
between the lower gears. If you're more interested in this
than I, try it and report back please.
