• 8 speed help

  Hey guys,
  Im currently building up a new/old roadie.
  I have a shimano 8 speed rear hub/cassette and some campag chorus 8 shifters.
  My question is can I use a campag rear derailleur with the shimano cassette or should I use a shimano derailleur?

  I read that I can use a 9 speed shimano derailleur?

  ps... I tried the search function but didnt really get anywhere.

  Thanks!

  thanks guys! ill post pictures in the current projects thread when i get it all together!
  Ive found the re-isssued decals but there a few different sets so i think ill just leave it as is.
  If i do get it re-sprayed ill get it done in the same color again. aint no puppy killa!

  Just bought myself an old kuwahara track frame.
  It has Ishiwata EX tripple butted crmo tubes with suntour dropouts.

  I was wondering if anyone had any information about these frames or if you anyone else owns one? I have only found a handful of information about them so anything you know is most helpful!

  Cheers

  while we are on the topic of tubs, can anyone recommend some good tubulars for daily riding?
