campagnolo/shimano mix and match question
Since indexing is built into the shifters, not the derailleur, I should be able to use campagnolo derailleurs with shimano shifters and cassette unproblematically... correct?
Thanks

wrong, because it has to do with cable pull ratio.
FD you can get away with, but RD you can apparently do: campy brifter + sram RD and have it index properly with a shimano cassette.
There's also the J-tek shiftmate which helps to correct the pull ratio.
Otherwise just buy a shimano RD
