campagnolo 10 and 11 speed compatibility

dab996

Hi,

I thought i'd done my homework but apparently not. I run a 10 speed Campagnolo Chorus groupset and have recently replaced the wheels, which run an 11 speed Super Record cassette.

I have been advised this set up isn't compatible so would the simplest option be either to replace the super record 11 speed with a Chorus 10 speed cassette? Or can i get away with the 11 speed cassette running 10 speed shifters if i swap out for an 11 speed chain?

Thanks

You need a 10 speed cassette (doesn't need to be Chorus!).

or an eleven speed rear shifter....

Does that have the same cable pull as the 10sp shifter?? If it does it'd also need an 11sp chain to run on the 11sp cassette I think.

Just buy a 10 speed Campag Miche cassette.

I've never tried using old 10 speed mechs with pre-2014 11 speed shifters but I suspect they would probably work perfectly well. Perhaps not with post-2014 shifters though so if you go down this route then just be aware. You would need an 11 speed chain and you would have different shaped levers/hoods.

As other posters have said you could just get a 10 speed cassette; campag or miche. You may need a wider spacer on the freehub body as well depending on what came with the wheels.

I just wanted to let you know there are other options.

Those ratios that wiggle sell are cheaper of my site. Your Google skills need working on.
