    Just pricing up shifters for a budget build and came across the campag levers , is the pull ratio the same as shimano or not and anyone tried them?

    There’s a page on the CTC site re shimergo which should tell you but I find it difficult to understand.

    I run 9s ergos with a shimano mech and its just about OK on 8s. So 10 might work OK on 9.

    If they have plastic levers them AVOID, they are terrible.

    You could use a Jtek shiftmate…

    A number 3 will make 10spd campag shifters work with a shimano mech & 10spd cassette

    Shiftmate costs £30, you can get a xenon rear mech for about £25.

    +1 for Jtek shiftmate

    I ran 11 speed Campy Chorus shifters with a 9 speed xtr rear mech and it worked well enough, however the shifting was a bit cluncky onto the second largest cassette cog.

    I bought a Jtek shitmate and the shifting is perfect across the whole block now – would recommend them.

    10spd Ergos will work perfectly across an 8spd Shimano cassette, or 9spd with the hubbub clamp method in that CTC article.

    Shimergo works perfectly – I did it for 5 years. 10s Campag shifter with 9s shimano mech, 9s shimano cassette. Note the cable needs to be fitted to the rear mech in a special way.

    Alternatively 10s Campag ergo works perfectly with a shimano or sram 10s cassette and SRAM 10 speed rear mech which allows use of a clutch mech if you’re using it for cx as I am.
