I'm almost stringing myself up due to the apparent complexity of matching gears,cranks, index
shifting, non index shifting etc etc.
Hopefully answers to these questions will help!!
(1) Most would agree that 9sp is the way to go for a heavy loaded tourer?
(2) Campag ergopower levers only work with index shifting?
(3) Campag 10 sp ergopower can work with 9sp too?
(4) Do campag do a 9 sp bar end shifter that can also work in friction mode? Is it current product
range (I found nothing on their web site).
(5) All rear derailleurs should work in friction or nidex mode since it's the lever that
does the work?
(6) A long cage 9sp campag chorus is a great choice for a rear mech?
(7) My current shimano rsx crank on an XT hub is fine : I just need to change the hyperdrive front
rings to something like TA (they need changing anyway).This crank was used previously on a 7sp
shimano kitted bike. Is there different crank needed for a 9sp setup?
(8) Will my RSX front shifter continue to do after the changes prompted by (7) are done?
thanks for your continued patience and time
