The thing still wouldn't shift properly so I reinstalled all of the old stuff which worked flawlessly and gave up. Some time later, I was showing a friend my tandem and mentioned the problems i had had with my new 11 speed Ultegra derailleur and 11 speed Ultegra cassette. It only took him a couple seconds to point out that I had a 10 speed drive train including 10 speed shifters.

Duh...
A while ago I got a great deal on a Lemond from Craigslist. Sold because it didn't shift well. Turns out it had 9 speed Ultegra levers and an 8 speed cassette.
