  1. From the new Dura-ace catalogue at the Bicycling Australia Show

    10 speed cog width 1.6mm 10 speed spacer width 2.35mm
    =3.95mm spacing

    comparing to Campag from Sheldon's site 10 speed cog 1.7 mm 10 speed spacer 2.42 mm
    =4.12 spacing

    Don't know if this has been posted before, but I know I hadn't seen it

    Shimano was boxed into a corner on this. They needed a 10-speed system because Campy had one. They
    also had to produce a cog spacing that was different enough from Campy's 10-speed so as to not to
    be compatible. However, they were limited by the 130mm rear stay spacing in road bikes. Only one
    way to go... really thin.

    Next question: does this mean that Campy 10-speed chains will be too thick for Shimano cogsets?

    It's hard to imagine 17 one-hundreths of a millimeter making that much of a difference.

  4. think you have to add 1/2 thediffernce in cog thickness to spacer difference, so it 22/100ths.
    perhaps enough to make noisey. over ten cogs would that be 9x.22mm? of about a spoke's diameter?

  5. The chain is listed as 5.88mm to the outside of the plates (9speed was/is
    6.57) and the inside is unchanged at 2.32mm. I don't have a campag reference handy.
