just curious.. why would you want to? Record cassettes then to cost more.
In terms of will it work, Yes.
Does it work good? unknown.

People have used Shimano cassettes for a long time in Campag groups due to cost of replacement. Rarely the other way around due to the same concern. Can't see it having too many issues though if you already have them and want to try them out.

I have been a shimano user since always, but I received a gift wheel with a Campagnolo Freehub. Now I have a hard 9000 group installed on my bike, but I'm not sure if a cassette Campy worked with my shimano derailleur.

It will work decently enough. Same as the other way round.

Almost all wheels out there now have a freewheel body that can be swapped from a Campagnolo to a Shimano spline. Why are you considering the Campy cassette when you could much more cost effectively replace the freewheel body? Let us know which wheel you have and we can probably provide some quick feedback on what is possible.

Swap out the campy free hub and sell it.

Thanks for responding soon. I have a wheel ENVE ses 3.4, with a power tap hub G3.

I run both systems (dont ask) opposite, and either is fine.

G3 powertap hub? Should be a Novatec freehub, so nice and cheap.

i have a left over Enve SES 3.4 Campy wheelset from a SR build. sold the group but kept the wheels. no issues whatsoever. but like others have said...cheaper cassettes may force you to swap the freehub over to Shimano.

I had made the decision to go for a campy cassette because the original freehub powertap is worth more than 100 dollars. Can you put the link that you recommend?

Looks like powertap have dropped their prices recently; shimano 11spd for a normal (not GS hub) is currently $40.

Typical UK price fixing seems to have kept them high though.

Ive used a 2004 era Corima Carbon tubular campy wheelset with a Record 11-23 block on my Shiv TT bike setup with Di2, and its flawless.. I don't have to adjust a thing...
