So your Shimano rear derailleur will get the same amount of cable travel per "click" of a Campagnolo shifter as it would get from the appropriate Shimano shifter. You can use any 9 speed Campy shifter, first version (pre-2001) or second (2001 or later), to shift any 9 speed Shimano derailleur on a Shimano cassette.

Can you use Campagnolo shifters with Shimano derailleur?

The Campagnolo 10 shifter with Shimano/SRAM 8 cassette and Shimano rear derailer will work perfectly, too, if you wish to forego the Shifmate. A SRAM 12-26 8 speed cassette 850 is $30 and weighs approx. 230 grams. You can also run a 9 speed chain with that setup.

Do shifters and derailleurs have to match?

Rear derailleurs and shifters need to be compatible i.e. sram shifters, sram rear derailleur. Front derailleurs work really with any shifter. Besides that just make sure all the speeds are the same, i.e. 9 speed derailleur with nine speed cassette.

Is Campagnolo 11 speed compatibility with Shimano?

Yes they are. The 11 speed cassettes of Shimano and Campagnolo have the same sprocket spacings and overall widths, so you can swap a Shimano wheel/freehub/11sp cassette with a Campagnolo wheel/freehub/11 speed cassette. Rest of the bike can be Shimano or Campag 11 speed, it doesn't matter.

Are Shimano and Campagnolo cassettes interchangeable?

Compatibility between different drivetrains

SRAM and Shimano cassettes, on either road or mountain bike, are interchangeable with each other as the spacing is the same between the sprockets. However, Campagnolo road cassettes will only work with Campagnolo drivetrains.

Can You Use SRAM Gears With A Campagnolo Groupset? | GCN Tech Clinic

Are Shimano shifters interchangeable?

Just for clarity, current generation (10-, 11- and 12-speed) Shimano road and mountain bike components are not inter-compatible with each other because they use different cable pull ratios. For example, you couldn't use a set of road shifters with a mountain bike rear derailleur.

Can you use a Dura Ace chain with an Ultegra cassette?

As a result, the chains and cassettes from the two brands have always been completely interchangeable for any given type of transmission (e.g. 11-speed). ... Thus, an Ultegra (6800/8000) 11-speed chain can be used with a Dura-Ace (9000/9100) 11-speed cassette.

Will Shimano 10 speed cassette work with Campagnolo?

In other words, Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo 11-speed cassettes work just fine on each others' drivetrains. So, one way to use an old 10-speed wheel with an 11-speed drivetrain is to install a Campagnolo freehub body and Campagnolo 11-speed cassette on it.

Will 10 speed shifter work with 11 speed cassette?

No, that will not work. The shifts will not line up across the entire range, because an 11-speed cassette is not just a 10-speed cassette with an extra cog stuck on at the same spacing.

Can you use a 11 speed rear derailleur on a 10 speed cassette?

the 10 speed and 11 speed derailleurs are interchangeable as far as the shifters go, the difference is that a 10 speed derailleur doesn't like a cassette cog much bigger than the 36t it was designed for, where the 11 speed derailleurs are designed for 40 and 42t cogs, and seem to be able to handle bigger.

Are bike shifters universal?

There are a number of different types of shifter, depending on manufacturer and transmission system, but the biggest difference is between road and MTB shifters, or more accurately between shifters designed to be mounted on bikes with drop handlebars ('racing' bikes), and those designed for bikes with 'normal' ...

Can you mix Shimano components?

It is possible to mix and match as long as you get components from the same generation. For example: 9000 Dura Ace, 6800 Ultegra, and 5800 105 are all cross compatible. Each have 11-speeds in the rear, use the same cable pull per shift and use the same front derailleur design.

Are derailleur hangers universal?

The Universal Hanger should be in everyone's saddlebags. If your existing derailleur hanger busts, strips or is totally wonky, the Universal Hanger replaces the drive-side nut on your quick-release skewer so you can get the majority of your gear range back.

Is Sunrace compatible with Campagnolo?

Most manufacturers' cassettes (and freehub body splines) are compatible with Shimano (SRAM, Sun Race etc.), while Campagnolo cassettes use different freehub splines – that is explained on. Also, SRAM XD cassettes (and freehub body splines) differ from all the rest.

Can I use a 11 speed shifter on a 9 speed derailleur?

With Shimano, no. The cable pulls are different. You might be able to futz with a JTek Shiftmate to get something working, but the cost would be way higher than just buying a 7-9 speed rear derailleur. Chain width won't matter?

Are derailleurs speed specific?

7 Answers. The spacing between 9 speed and 10 speed is controlled at the shift lever. A 10 speed rear dérailleur will work with a 9 or 10 speed cassette and shifter. A 9 speed rear dérailleur is not compatible with 10 speed.

Will 10 speed shifter work with 12 speed Rd?

-10 speed shifter sets your throw to match the rear cassette. -chains have the same outer dimension, the 12 speed derailleur would have narrower cogs than what required for a 10 speed. -As long as you can set the high/low limits on the derailleur to keep it on the cassette it should be fine.

Can I use a 10 speed rear derailleur with 9 speed shifters?

leverage yes. pull is constant but different shifter means less pull needed for the 10 cogs. so it will work. YOU CANT USE A SRAM MECH WITH SHIMANO SHIFTERS AND YOU CANT USE A 10 SPEED MECH WITH 9 SPEED SHIFTERS.

Yes. Campagnolo wheels are compatible with both Shimano and SRAM components. In order to use Campagnolo wheels with any drivetrain on the market, Campagnolo produces two kinds of freewheel bodies: one specific for Campagnolo drivetrains (from 9 to 11 speeds) and one for non-Campagnolo drivetrains (from 9 to 11 speeds).

What cassettes are compatible with Campagnolo?

Campagnolo freehubs are compatible only with Campagnolo cassettes. In late 2000, Campagnolo introduced the Ultra-Drive standard, for greater shifting smoothness. Its 9/10/11-speed freehubs are compatible with all the Ultra-Drive cassettes of either 9, 10, 11 or 12-speed (11t starting cog) with no spacers required.

Do SRAM shifters work with Shimano derailleurs?

The SRAM rear derailleur (mech) will not work with a Shimano shifter as is; the cable pull and shift activation ratios are not the same between the two systems. ... If you do get a Shimano rear derailleur, you would need the GS (long) cage if you have an 11-32 cassette.

Is Dura-Ace worth the extra money?

I would say the dura-ace big chainring is most definitely worth it. Other than that though, save your money. Cassettes wear out much faster and it isn't worth it (to me at least) to fork out the extra cash. Dura Ace is the best (of Shimano), but you'll pay quite a premium for the slight edge over Ultegra.

How long does Dura Ace chain last?

If you wear your chain/cassette combo you can easily get a year's (5000kms) riding out of them in all conditions. If you just want to change your chains, trust the measurement tool or bargain for 1200-1400 kms as a rule of thumb.

Is a Dura Ace chain better than Ultegra?

Greater use of the Sil-Tec coating does make the Dura-Ace chain more durable, because it covers the high-load contact surfaces, where it does not on the Ultegra chain. Link shaping is identical so there's no diference in shift performance. The weight difference from the hollow pins is negligible.
