Campy Veloce 10sp Compact Exa Drive Crank

[* * Chas]

Would I have any problems using a Campy Veloce 10 speed compact Exa Drive
50T-34T crank on a bike with Shimano 8 speed components?

For example would I have to use a 10 speed chain? What other issues would
I run into?

Chas.

You shouldn't have any problems using whatever brand of crank with
other componets. You need to use the chain that matches the cassette.
In your case you need to use the 8 speed chain.

Match the chain to the REAR cogset, not the front. Works fine, we do
it all the time. Install, adjust FD, go ride.
