Are Shimano 10sp hubs compatible with a SRAM rival group?
Trying to find some tubulars for my brother's Specialized Roubaix and he has a SRAM Rival front/rear derailleur. Will any Shimano 10spd hub work? Thanks

It's not a question of derailleurs, the incompatibility will be with cassettes. SRAM cassettes will only fit on some Shimano freehubs, the steel bodied ones with standard splines, not the alloy bodies with larger splines.
