Well, I tried to be cheap and got caught with a nasty.


A BBB cassette and Campy chain will not run in the 13. Every other
gear is fine (10s, 11-23).


Both parts brand spanking new.


As well, the lock ring is longer than a genuine campy one, and I
suspect interferes with the cassette bearing, and doesn't have the
same positive "click" as you tighten it up.


I used the old 11 and campy lock ring. Much better.


I couldn't recommend BBB cassettes after this exercise.


If you want to go cheap buy Veloce. No need to mess/experiment with
third party parts. Well, you found out by yourself.
I still have the Ti cogs of my original Record cassette. They don't get
used much. The other cogs are replaced from time to time with
Veloce/Centaur ones.


I couldn't see an 11-23 in anything below Centaur from Ribble. At
$83.79 AUD compared with $41.98 AUD for the BBB, I thought the BBB was
worth a try. Never again.


Oh yeah you are living in the outback ;-) Forgot.


Just recently an online bike shop opened in the outback, however it
doesn't have a large range, and has no Campy stuff at all.

Ribble is a UK bike shop that sells online (we have internet here at
last ;-)

35 euro is 46 AUD right?

Yes, however no 11-23.
