Has anyone installed one of these with Shimano Ultegra 6700 road shifters? I want to run a 1x10 setup on my CX bike.

Did some quick Googling and it looks like the Shimano 10 Speed Dynasys components are not compatible with any other style/brands including Ultegra. They used to be but not any more. Just basing this off of research.

Answer is.... NO. This really annoyed me that they come as a single plate and screw but, some people might need to fix jusr one plate. This replacement plate makes the shifters look so much better than the default ones that come on the 5600s. Completed the look of my custom top to bottom bike at the time. They are interchangeable as you might imagine. $20 for 2 is around the going rate....probably costs shimano $2 for the pair...but the look is much better in all black. The 5700s are all black. Hope that answers your questoin. :)

Mainly asthetics. Both are 2x1 activation and Shimano compatable. Should be interchangeable.

First, it's a 12-30 not 11-30 and I have used this cassette with both a 105, RD 5700 short cage and an Ultegra RD 6700 short cage derailleur. That said, it is not compatible according to Shimano. I have read a great deal about longer B tension screws, frame geometry and hanger length but have done nothing beyond fitting the cassette and cranking the B tension to get about 1/4" (6mm) clearance between the jockey roller and cogs. If you're switching from an 11-28 the chain will probably be long enough but if you current biggest cog is 25 or smaller you will probably need a new chain. Personally, I have had trouble installing the Shimano connecting pins but have had no problem using the KMC quick links with Shimano chains.

Since the bar end shifters are intended for 8-speed rear cassette you will need to find a compatable derailleur. I checked online and most everything is 9-10-or11 speed now. In the past I have had both Dura-Ace and Ultegra derailleurs by Shimano that worked great but they were 8-speed systems ant that was about 15 years ago. Not sure if the 10 or 9 speed will work or not. I would check with a good bike mechanic before buying just to be safe. I bought and older Specialized Warrior Sport that happened to have an 8-speed rear cassette (not sure of the brand of the derailleur) and I installed the bar end shifters and they work great and have made riding fun again.

These do not act as shifters. As a road and track racer, i honestly i dont recommend these levers. i think that the C clamp that you tighten to the handbar isnt strong enough and i had a lot of play after a short time of using them...

I have used this chain with a SRAM PG 1070 12-25 cassette with no problems. I have also used the chain with a Shimano Ultegra 12-25 cassette with no problems.

Yes both shifters, with cables, and some housing. It's an OE kit so you won't get the block out plates for the optical indicators, retail box, and you may need additional housing if you plan to run full length housing front to back on both derailluers. If your frame has cable stops you may have enough in this kit however. It did include directions however. I sourced additional Shimano SiS housing from my parts drawer they work great on my Ogre build. These are the 9 speed shifters BTW.

Did you ever find out? I thought SRAM uses a different pull ratio, making them incompatible with Shimano equipment.

I have not. But I don't see why it would be an issue as long as the shifters are for the same diameter bars.

Well, they are two different companys. I think you're taking a chance, but if Shimano doesn't make a similer product, it might be a chance worth taking. Otherwise, buy and use a chain link designed for a Shimano chain. Good luck

I had this installed on my 2005 Softail Delux and it works fine. There is a very slight delay in display of the gear you're in after shifting. Since I do not have a bike like yours, I'm not sure of the situation; But is did seem like a big deal when I had Beartooth HD (Billings MT) install it for me. It does come in handy ~ it also displays an "n" when your in neutral and has nice bright blue light indicator. pc

The main thing is, SRAM REAR derailleurs will only work with SRAM REAR shifters, and vice versa. You can never use SRAM with Shimano in the back. It doesn't matter in the front.

My giant has exposed cables with housings at each end. The shifters came with approximately 2 feet of housing for each cable. I had no problem installing the shifters on my bike. But I screwed up because I changed my brakes afterwards and had to use the rear cable on the front and buy a new cable for the rear(the new brakes needed slightly longer cables) l had already cut the cables to fit the original brakes(doh!!!) Unless you need housings from shifter to derailer(fully inclosed)you will have more than enough to install these. I think you'll be pleased with these if you buy them. Any other questions feel free to ask. I love them on my Giant Rincon

I installed them on a Trek 7000 with minimal problems and the work fine. The only issue I had was removing the rear wheel for installation. The fit fine.

Shimano SPD-SL, they work for me on that setup. they DO NOT WORK for the standard SPD peddals. do a quick google on SPD vs SPD-SL

No I believe you can't. You need to use shifters with the same gear ratio that your bike is configured with in order for them to work properly
