    Hi,

    Looking for a new rear mech for the road bike, I’m currently using a Tiagra 9 speed. They all appear to be 10 speed now.

    Can I use a 10 speed mech, with a 9 speed chain, the jockey wheels will be a bit thinner, but is there enough space between the cage for the chain?

    Does this space vary between the models ( Tiagra, 105, etc)

    Cheers for your help,

    Gordon

    Will work perfectly fine with any Shimano 10spd rear mech.

    Thanks Simon, wish they’d say that in the blub on the Shimano website!
