I'm redoing the drivetrain on my bike, for no particular reason. I
just purchased 2006 Centaur 10s shifters, and have a NOS Veloce double
crankset. I will eventually get a 10s campy RD and some kind of
compatible cassette for my shimano hubs.
My question has to do with the front derailleur: is there any
difference between a "9 speed" and a "10 speed" campy front
derailleur? Can I use a "9 speed" or (8 speed or "vintage" or whatever
they call them on ebay) front derailleur w/my eventual 10s-campy-
double setup? I've done a bit of poking around in this NG, and what
I've found seems to suggest that it doesn't make a difference what FD
i use, but I wasn't totally clear.
>From what I can tell, the 2006 campy shifters are still indexed in
front, right? So I should be able to use them with any FD, right? So
the "9 speed" vs. "10 speed" front derailleur thing is just baloney,
right? Or is there a difference b/c of narrower 10s chains, or
something else?
Thanks for any advice!
