Campagnolo/Shimano Compatibility on Front Derailleur - 2005/02/09 05:00 I'm sure that this has been asked before, but could not find in Deja search.
I currently have Campagnolo 10 speed group on my commuter bike. I want to swap my double crank for a mountian crank (46, 34, 24). The front derailleur that I have on hand is a XTR M950 ('03 group M952). I want to know if this will work... i.e. does the Campagnolo front shifter take up enough cable to move the XTR der. through it's entire range?
Thanks in advance for any help.

re:Campagnolo/Shimano Compatibility on Front Derailleur - 2005/02/09 07:26 Maybe. Its usually recommended that you use Campy ergo levers with Campy rear der. However, if you like to DIY, here's an article matching Campy ergo with shimano rear der, good luck:

Unknown. At this time DA 10 7800 only comes with a double crank option. If you want DA triple, you need to get DA 9.

Campy 9 works pretty well with Shimano 9. DA 10 just came out, so its still not clear how "well" it will work with Campy 10. I suspect it be very close and should work.

For more on mixin' and matchin Campy and Shimano 9, check out Sheldon's site here:
