Title: Campag / Shimano crank / cassette
Post by: YahudaMoon on 18 July, 2010, 06:56:02 am

If I fit a Campag crank / chain rings and bottom bracket to a frame will these components work with my Shimano cassette when I fit the Shimano chain ? Thanks.

Yes, the chainrings don't care what cassette you have, and you can use any make of chain.  Just make sure the "speed" of the chain (the width) is correct for the cassette.

There can sometimes (rarely) be problems using the wrong chain width with the chainset as well, but that's less critical, so don't worry about that for now.
