Anybody on here done a 10 speed ratchet swap on New 9 speed Ergopower right lever?

I have the index ratchet EC-RE061 for 10 speed but it seems i need the RE062 index ring so it shifts 10 times correctly and they're not made anymore and are pretty hard to source (ping @mdcc_tester).

Maybe buying a scratched right Veloce lever and doing a transplant would work?

Anybody got one? :)

For you and anybody else considering a similar appeal: I haven't done Campagnolo, except UT cranks, since before they added indexed shifting.

except UT cranks

Brave man. :)

Certainly looks like it. I guess the best way to tell would be to check the geometry charts. Easiest measurement to me would be fork a2c. I'd imagine the 26 and 29 models (of the same size) are different.

650b might fit at a squeeze?

you need both. done the swap multiple times - it is really easy. there is also a good factory vid on youtube to guide you

Yeah, gonna try and borrow a 27.5 wheel of my neighbour and check the clearence

you need both. done the swap multiple times

Did you transplant from another lever or do you have stash of ratchet rings :)

there's a "campag wrecker/breaker" guy here in budapest - i got them from him :)

2 speed Fixie winter bike ready to test - The Sturmey Archer TF hub shifts well with just a few clicks of the Campag rear shifter. Just need to change the saddle and repair a crack in the seat post to finish it off. ... and cut down the steerer !

Waiting for a Somec to arrive. Thinking of giving down tube shifters a go.

That’s like a 3D pic that I don’t have specs for.

Dura Ace 10-speed indexed work quite well. Quite expensive but I’ve been impressed with mine.
