Campy front derailleur with STI?
Anyone know whether a Campy front derailleur is compatible with Shimano
STI? I ask because Shimano front derailleurs (I'm running 8-sp Ultegra on several bikes) are finicky to set up without chain rub, and I've never had a problem in this regard with Campy (or, for that matter, with older Shimano 600 FD's with a slightly wider cage). |

Mike - I am running a Record FD with a DA STI setup, so no worries! Basjan |

It is possible but not as well as a shimano FD. If yer getting chain rub, Try mounting the inner wire underneath the cable fixing bolt for shimano FD..necessary with 6400, ultegra 8s sti FDs. |

Ergo has much better FD clearance than STI. Plus Ergo's cables are wrapped
against the bar instead of sticking out like some 1944 German night fighter. |
