Does anyone know if you can put a 9spd Shimano Derore/XT/XTR casssette onto a road bike with Ultegra
running gear and have the STI shifters still work correctly?
Current setup is all Ultegra, with a 52/39 at the front, and a 12-27 at the rear. I want to put a
12-34 on the rear to help me get up the hills - apparently my bike (a Giant FCR1) won't take a
triple at the front very easily. Hence changing the cassette. But will an XTR casset fit
(splines, width), and, once I have swapped to a long cage rear mech, will the indexing from the
drops still work?
