|  will my '91 ultegra 600 rd work with 8 speed??? | rb1freak Jun 24, 2003 6:57 AM | | I'm retro-fitting an old mtb bike for touring. Will the following combination work? '91 ultegra 600 rd, 8sp XT cassette and XT 8sp thumbshifters. I'm mostly wondering if the '91 vintage 600 rd will do 8sp? Any thoughts?? thanks |

|  re: But,........... | Rusty Coggs Jun 24, 2003 7:10 AM | | .....it may not shift a large cog bigger than a 30.I think large cog spec wat about 28 and that is usually somewhat conservative. |
|  re: But,........... | rb1freak Jun 24, 2003 9:12 AM | | thanks for the quick response. I think the largest cog is a 28 tooth. |
