Hi All,

Need to help my neighbor work on her bike. Will a new Shimano STI cable and housing fit on a 7 speed RSX STI lever?

Bikes: '96 Litespeed Catalyst, '05 Litespeed Firenze, '06 Litespeed Tuscany, '20 Surly Midnight Special, All are 3x10. It is hilly around here!

Shimano hasn't changed their brake or shift cables and housing since STI was introduced so, yes, current shift and brake cables and housing will fit older RSX brifters.
