Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Issues with SRAM and Shimano Cassette Interchangability?

I'm trying out a 12-28 SRAM cassette as an alternative to the 11-32 Shimano cassette (both 10 speed) that I normally run on our tandem. Has anyone on this forum experienced problems going back and forth between Shimano and SRAM cassettes?

For the record I'm running Campy Chorus brifters and a SRAM X9 Exact Actuation (10 speed) RD. This setup shifts absolutely perfectly with the Shimano cassette.

I'll probably cross-post on the Bicycle Mechanics forum, but I think it pretty likely that someone on this forum has experience going back and forth.

Should have no problem. You might need to remove a few links on your chain.
