shimano-campagnolo compatible?

[tottitotti]

Will the following option work, as I am thinking of go from Dura Ace to Record

Dura Ace 9 speed crankset
Dura Ace 9 speed front and rear shifters

Record 10 speed ergolevers
Record 10 speed chain and cassette

You left something out. Assuming you meant DA 9 speed front and rear derailers, the answer is no.You need a campy RD.

Why mix great Shimano quality with something and undependable and tempramental as Campagnolo!!!!!!

This will not work. Shimano front/rear derailleurs are designed for indexed shifting. What will work is the following:

Record 10 ergolevers, Record 10 front/rear derailleur, Shimano 9spd cassette (ultegra) and Shimano 9spd chain (ultegra) <- My current setup. Match the chain to the cassette.

That is also nonsense.Campy rear is index. A shimano FD will work with a campy front shifter.

Well, you certainly don't have to have the campy FD. Campy front shifter will work with most any FD.

The Jtek shftmate will solve all the compatibility issues


It's a godsend

It worked great for my camp ergos shifters up front with a shimano drivetrain
