Ironically I went looking for JTek to see if they had a solution in the works for STI to XT MTB. I do have a #2 Shiftmate if anyone needs one of those. I believe I tried it out on 10s Campy with Shimano 9s sometime ago. PM if you need it.

Digging up an old thread...
But, in my defence, I wanted to know if anyone has bought the #6 shiftmate to do the road STI lever to dynasys MTB mech as suggested in the last post?
Road STI (2.3mm pull) is designed for a 1.7:1 ratio rear mech to give the 3.9mm shift for 10sp.
Dynansys being a 1.2:1 ratio is designed to work with the newer 3.2ishmm pull MTB levers, the difference in ratios is what the #6 is fixing.

Mmm, took a look at the Gevenalle shifters, IMO damn ugly.
I have some 6700 shutters already and want to keep them, the problem is how to use a dynasys (shadow+) rear mech with them.
