    Hi all

    I’m altering my commuter to run 1 x 9. So far, I’ve got rid of the front mech and inner ring, and replaced the left shifter with a simple brake lever. So far so good. Loving the simplicity.

    Next step is to get rid of the other dodgy old campag sti lever.

    I was thinking that a bar-end shifter to pull the rear mech might be good (and cheap).

    I’ve got a 9-speed cassette… unfortunately the vast majority of indexed options seem to pull cable based on shimano mechs/cassettes, not Campag.

    Would I be right in thinking that nearly any lever will work though, as long as it’s a friction-shift?

    Anyone running a similar setup? Any tips?

    Cheers

    Yes.

    Campag 9 is close to shimano 8 in terms of cable pull.

    Ta Al. Will get eBaying for some old shimano finery.
