campag / shimano

coggs

Can anyone shed any light on this ? am currently running shimano 10 and want to put on srm cranks , only problem is the srm cranks are campag ! are they compatable ? any help on this would be great .

Cranks are groupset agnostic. As long as they're ten speed cranks, they'll work with any other ten speed group.

i think the cranks are 9 speed so i presume i just out on a 10 speed campag chainring and its job done ?

Chips Lovell

I can't say for sure. Manufacturers will say not to mix ten speed drivetrains with nine speed cranks. But I've seen some people say it works fine and others say the rings are too wide for ten speed chains. If the latter's the case, swapping out the rings might make a difference, but I'm not sure if the spacing between rings on nine and ten speed cranks is different and if it is, whether it would affect shifting.

It will work fine. Theres a small chance you will need to change the rings to make it smoother, but even at that it should still be ok e.g. FSA Carbon cranks are Shimano/Campy/9/10 speed compatible. I have ridden record cranks on a dura-ace drivetrain whilst one of the lads in the club has full campy but with a Dura-Ace Crankset.
