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!

All road mechs will work, 10 speed mtb mechs wont.
