Because the SL's were hard to find, I purchased a Shimano-compatible SL, and converted it over myself to the Campy. (Saris makes a kit to do just this conversion. But, oh, the required grease/lubricant is expesive: 80$ for 4 ounces...) After the conversion, I am having problems installing the rear wheel. A couple of the threads on the rear axle are exposed on the non-drive side. The diameter of the threads is bigger than the axle, and is too big to fit within the dropouts. Thus, I have to spread the chain stays apart just a tad (~ 1-2 mm) to install the rear wheel. (I'm assuming that spreading the stays by this amount is not damaging to the frame.) Saris tech support has not heard of this problem. Has anyone else? Post Extras
