10 sp cassette on 9sp hub and derailleur shifter questions

[ibbz]

Just one more thing - out of curiosity, sound a shimano LH shifter work with a 2 or 3 speed Campag front mech?

 

[legrandefromage]

not a clue,, but have managed to get allsorts cobbled together over the years

 

[ibbz]

Has anyone ever used two different types of shifter on the same bike?
ie a rapid fire for the RM and a friction thumbie for the front?

I believe the big cheese himself has done this, and THM too iirc...

So it seems this (or similar) would be only option?
Or else use the 10sp cassette with a MTB derailleur

Hi,
I had a microshift road 10speed flatbarshifter,
https://www.mtb-news.de/forum/t/ein-en-fuchs-fuer-die-dame.887973/post-15845783with 10speed cassette (even 11-36) with an old LX 550 MTB rear mech (polished) at a 1x10 set-up
https://www.mtb-news.de/forum/t/ein-en-fuchs-fuer-die-dame.887973/post-15852851It worked perfect! Just can't stop to do further changes on that bike.

Yes, this is road flatbar shifter.
I've bought it pretty cheap via Aliexpress, unfortunately the offer isn't existing any longer

Here's a review

They don't have a obvious Model number, most likely they are called TS83-10.
Just looks like those are nowadays similar hard to get as 8 speed Microshift thumbies.
But there is an ebay offer in France currently for a full set (not mine):

Yes...for years. I hate rapid fire front...its the lack of trim. So 8 speed rapid fire rear with thumbie front. Its not pretty, but it works a treat.

That actually looks quite good !
Would it be possible to use any friction thunbie for a front mech ?
