Hi,

Does a Campag road rear mech work with shimano indexing?

Will the cable pull be the same as per any Shimano MTB rear mech?
 
google shimergo and find the ctc's article on which mechs work with what-works every time for me as its all down to the age of the mechs, the number of speeds and so on.
 
Put simply, no, as Campag and Shimano pull different amounts of cable per click.

BUT there are wheezes, as Pete says which can allow you to get most combinations to work. Also there are converter roller things which can do the job. JTEK shiftmate is the most common one.
 
Great Link Pete.

Well it looks like the JTEK doesn't have the combo I need.
Nor does there seem to be a likely match in the compatibility chart.

It's a shame, nevermind.
 
Nope, but the campag stuff is absolute bliss IMveryHO :p

9 speeed Bianchi road bike has NEVER missed a beat (once i got used to the Look pedals :oops: )
