    Anyone out there know if it is possible to run Shimano crankset with a Campy shifter? I run all campy stuff, but want to go down from 170 mm cranks. Shimano do what Campy do not, so can put in a Shimano crankset and work it with my Campy gear?

    OR, anyone got any ideas as to how I might do this without changing all my kit?

    Thanks in anticipation, jim.

    It works. You need the proper BB to go with the shimano crankset.

    Hi boudroux,

    Many thanks for that. I'm really a Campy man, but what can I do. Maybe I'll be converted!!

    Thanks again, jim.
