They worked fine and I know that the Bar End shifters use the same indexing gear mechanism as the DTs. Give it a try...Why are you using DT shifters anyhow...Luddite (no offense intended). I have several sets of wheels and change between the Shimano 9spd 11-34 and campy 10spd cassettes by just readjusting the limit screws and a small tweek on the road until everything is perfect again. BTW I found the Centaur hub with the Shimano spline pattern (apparently made by campy) for the 11-34t. I have since found that there are some after market hub bodys that can be exchanged. A good source would be peter@vecchios.com. He has setup some touring bikes this way and knows where to buy the items.
The Shifters are Shimano DA, DT's, Hub is Ultegra,and the RD is a Megarange so it will shift the big rear gears...I was, and still am hoping, that I could come up with a 9 or 10 sp casette with a bigger low range than the 12-27 Ultegra for the hills..The Sram 10 sp are to much loot. Guess I am Gonna fool around with the crankset next...Thanks !
