[Closed] Campag cassette with shimano rear mech and shifters does it work ?

Not really, the gaps between sprockets are ever so slightly different. You'll probably get it working OK over most of the range with a jump or two somewhere but it'll never be as good as full Shimano or full Campag setup.

no it doesnt work properly

I thanks for that Crazylegs I thought there was a slight difference with the spacing between the cogs cheers Bladder.

Can you take some spacers from an old Shimano cassette and use them?

what about the top few sprockets that are mounted on carrier ???

I use the opposite system on my "good" road bike. Works fine IMO.

IIRC there is a page on the CTC website with all the cross compatible options (eg on my other road bike i use 9s ergo, shimano mech and 8s cassette whch works ok)

Edric depends on cog thickness.

how are they joined? .I only have Campag 8 speed .Are they held with rivets that can be ground off?

(eg on my other road bike i use 9s ergo, shimano mech and 8s cassette whch works ok)

Why? ❓ 🙄

I have run campag 9 speed mechs and ergo shifters on a Shimano cassettee and I hate to say it but it ran alot smoother than a all campag set up I know there is a differance in the cog spacing but it [b]worked realy well[/b]

Just try it what have you got to loose

I have an old campag 8 speed and they are all separate sprockets and spacers.

Yes it works but it's a bit clunky (have set up a couple of bikes this way)

Campags 10s ergo and shimano mechs/9 sp cassette on my cx (hubbub fix for the mech) which works perfectly.

i use similar to clubber but my new rear mech wont play ball, but my old 8 speed mech worked perfect with 9 speed cassette!! but weighed a ton

tried to bodge a set up as per OP's post on a cX bike and couldnt get it to work.STI and campy cass.

There is some info on indexing and spacing of sprockets here:

Why?

I ran Campag 10 shifters with an 8 speed dura ace rear mech - why? - because Campag shifters were about £40 and the cheapest shimano STI's at the time were about £120.

Pretty much all the info you'll need here including the hubbub fix I mentioned:

9speed shimano cassette with campag ergo here. Works fine. I have a mavin m9 cassette somewhere that is supposed to be a solution..
