• Hi all, Campagnolo compatibility help please...

    I have an 11 speed Chorus RD, the earlier version, 2010-2014 (white stickers not red ones, and with no little boxed 'A' symbol) - Ref : RD11-CH1.
    The specs say it can take a cassette of minimum 11T and maximum 29T.
    Would a modern-day Centaur 11sp 11-29 cassette work smoothly with this ?
    No sprocket distance dimension changes in the years between release ?
    Or any other compatibility problems to consider ?

  • No sprocket distance dimension changes in the years between release ?

    There was some funny business with 10s, IIRC... two versions, one with non-uniform spacing, was that it?

    The arrival of 11s finally put a stop to worrying about anything beyond having the right number of cogs, didn't it? After all these years you can just throw in a Shimano wheel no problems.

  • That's also what I'd heard originally for the 11sp, that Shimano 11sp cassettes worked ok with Campag 11sp set-up, but from what I can filter from all the anecdotal info online, Campag cassettes don't have equal spacing across the 11 sprockets, whereas Shimano/SRM do ? Hence some say the mix works fine, the fraction of a mm difference isn't noticeable, and others that you can notice the difference and it's noticeabley not as smooth as Campag to Campag...?
