I want to add a 30 t sprocket to my 13/26 Campagnolo Veloce rear 9sp Cassette.

I have a long reach rear deraillier.

This will result in a jump on last two sprockets from 26 to 30.

Will it Work????

    The Megarange Shimano freewheels seem to work fine like that. That might even be a bigger jump.

    Might not work perfect, but shouldnt be amazingly costly to experiment with.

    It'll work OK, but you'll have to leave off the 9th or 8th sprocket as the top sprocket is a different design. Upshifts might not be as quick too.
    Make mine an Italian, with Campagnolo on the side..
