I am looking to build a "real" old school cyclocross bike, i.e. canti brakes, cable routing along the top tube etc. My question regards the compatibility of the early 90s Campa Record OR top pull front derailleur with the early aughts Campa Record 10speed Ergopowers. I believe that the micro-ratchet system of the left brifter should handle the top pull fd well - or am I mistaken? Also: would this question better be placed in the classic and vintage section?
You should post some pictures of your bike especially from the drive side. The C&V forum like pics and you never know when someone may have some ideas that can help you on your build. Are you building a modern frame or a vintage cross frame?
