Does anyone know if Ultegra r8000 jockey wheels will fit and work with Ultegra 6800 rear mech and chain?
They appear to have a different tooth profile on one of the wheels so unsure if I should just stick with the originals or go with the later version?

I'm 99.9% sure I've got R8000 jockey wheels in a 6800 mech with a KMC x11 chain. Works exactly like the old jockey wheels did.

Just check the width between the bushings, as it might bring the cage in a little - have to do this with Tacx/BBB replacement jockeys - which I use on my XT 8 speed and SRAM 10 speed.

Thanks guys, I reckon I might give it a whirl and see if they fit.
