Two questions for the forum experts:

1) Is the cassette body for the Easton EC90 SLX interchangeable? i.e. can I convert a Campy rear to Shimano?

2) Any feedback on these wheels? Like 'em? Dislike? Why?

(OK, I guess techincally that's more than two questions because #2 had four components to it, but you get the idea. :D )

Thanks!

I got some EA90 SLX and yes, the freehub can be exchanged without difficulty.

x2, i did this from shimano to campy. all u need is the right freehub and some hex tools.

and feedback, i won the slx ea90 wheelset from a video competition from easton and my friend , who i sold the wheels to, likes them alot. Very good "middle" range alloy wheelset. he has no complaints.

thanks for the feedback, but I was looking for feedback on the carbon version (Thus the subject "EC90 SLX").

The hubs are virtually the same for the EA and EC wheels. The differences are rims and the amount of spokes.
