Campag question

Can you use a Campag10 spd rear mech, with a 9spd chain and 9 spd ergo
shifter

AFAIK - no, the 9sp chain is too big for the spacing of the rear sprockets

yes you can. There is a current thread about this on
rec.bicycles.marketplace (of all weird places).

"Jusat for info-nnedn't be '8s' to work with 8s Campag [censored]. Any
campag rear derailleur will work, w/o modification, including a brand
new 2005 Record 10s one. We use new rear ders for replacement rear ders
for all Campag shifters from around 1990."

Aye, ya can. Ya can use a ten speed derailleur for eight speed, too. The only difference is that the pulley width is a teeny tad smaller for ten speed. It doesn't matter in practice - just like the slightly narrower chainrings for ten speed.

Cheers,

Suzy
