You may be able to get away with a 30T. Sheldon says every road RD including short cage models can handle a 30, although it may be necessary to mess with the B screw. However, as I mentioned before, you will be lowering your gear range by going to a smaller wheel, so if you are happy with your current gear range you might want to look at smaller rather than larger sprockets. > Joe/Ian- I'm running friction bar ends.

I was unsuccessful with 8, but am happy friction shifting hyperglide 7. YMMV. However, your chances of indexing Hyperglide with a Campag rear derailleur are poor. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "RBW Owners Bunch" group.
