Quick Campy 10 question (tooth capacity0

[MilanoTom]

Has anybody tried using a short cage 10 rear derailleur with the new 12-27
cassette (and 53/39 crankset)? It's outside the spec'ed range by one tooth in the cassette and a couple of teeth of total capacity. I can dredge up a mid-cage if necessary, but would rather use what's handy.

Thanks,
Tom

I run a short cage RD with a 13-29 cassette and 53/39 cranks. No issues. I'd imagine that yours would work too.

Used the short cage with both 13-29 and 12-30, so 12-27 no problem. Just make sure chain is proper length, not one link long or short.

Thanks much!
