Lightweight Rd on Sram
Moderator: robbosmans
Is that possible a Lightweight Rd on a Sram red 10 speed shifters. Cant find much info on net. Has anyone done this setup before. According to Lightweight handbook is only for shimano and campy. I assume sram are similar to shimano.
Anyone?

without reading any info in this Lightweight RD you speak of, I do know that Sram hss a different cable pull ratio than shimano and campy. as in a SRAM RD does not work with Shimano shifter and vice-a-versa
Sram cable pull is very different from Shimano.
You could use a Jtek shiftmate to match the cable pull but it would look inappropriate with a Lightweight derailleur.

Yes i have it running on campy for few years. Now planing to go sram, just would like to ask before i took out from the bike. If cant fit i wont do it and have to reinstall back to campy again.

A tuned SRAM RD is lighter and more affordable.
