There are pullies avalible so you can run ergo with shimano mech "shimergo". I believe it might be possible on some 8 speed systems. Do a serach on Shimergo and there is info about it on the CTC website and may Sheldon brown's site amongst others.

No.

You can make a Shimano (road) rear mech work with a 10 speed campag setup but only if you have a 9 speed shimano rear wheel/cassette.

It [b]may[/b] be possible to replace it with a SRAM rear mech though.
