Hi guys, I have the opportunity to buy a Bora Ultra 35 wheelset
http://www.dirtbike.ro/bazar/piese/roti ... -35-267413

but a have a few questions:
1) is this set tubular or clincher? From my knowledge and what I see in the picture they are tubular
2) does the rear wheel has Campa or Shimano freehub ? I tend to say it's Campa
3) if the free hub it's Campa and I need Shimano, what freehub do I need? I've found these 2 freehubs:

http://www.bike24.com/1.php?content=8;p ... D=1;page=1
Are any of these proper for Ultra 35 ?
4) if I change the freehub does the ceramic bearings are also inside of the freehub ? Or they are only in the wheel and thus by changing the freehub I don't need to care about the ceramic bearings ?

As a starter:
1. tubular
2. Campa
3. haven't checked, but you could run a campa 11sp cassette as well.
4. I don't know, but differences would be very, very small performance-wise.

Why wouldn't you ask the seller these questions? Do you trust this seller?

Because as I suspected he doesn't know... :)
But I have my answers at least for the first 3 questions, regarding the 4th one, reading the spare parts catalog from Campa it seems to me that the freehub doesn't have ceramics bearings, so switching it with a Shimano one is all I need.

Maybe you can touch them directly and will get some information as well.
