Will shimano 10 speed triple shifter work with compact chainset?

Are all Shimano 10 speed components compatible?
The problem when looking at TIAGRA component compatibility is that 10-speeds are not officially compatible with each other, and with the 4600 and 4700 series components.
Are Shimano 10 and 11 speed compatibility?
Shimano’s mechanical 10- and 11-speed road shifters are not compatible with its 10- and 11-speed MTB derailleurs.
Can I use 11 speed shifter with 10 speed cassette?
No, that will not work. The shifts will not line up across the entire range, because an 11-speed cassette is not just a 10-speed cassette with an extra cog stuck on at the same spacing.
Can I use an 11 speed front derailleur on a 10 speed bike?
And your intuition is correct that a Shimano 11-speed shifter will not work well with a 10-speed front derailleur because the 11-speed shifter is designed to actuate the longer lever arm of Shimano 11-speed front derailleurs.
Are Shimano shifters interchangeable?
Shimano shifters, whether for 6, 7, 8, or 9 speeds are compatible with all the Shimano RDs for 6 to 9 speeds, and with Shimano 10 speed road RDs (not with 10 speed MTB RDs). Update: a new exception are Shimano Tiagra 4700 road 10-speed shifters, and Shimano GRX gravel series shifters.
Can I mix Shimano groupsets?
It is possible to mix and match as long as you get components from the same generation. For example: 9000 Dura Ace, 6800 Ultegra, and 5800 105 are all cross compatible. Each have 11-speeds in the rear, use the same cable pull per shift and use the same front derailleur design.
Are 10 and 11 speed chainrings the same?
Answer from SRAM/Quarq:
Ten-speed chainrings can be installed on an 11-speed crank, just as 11-speed chainrings can be installed on a 10-speed crank. The spiders are identical.
How do I upgrade my Shimano 10 speed to 11 speed?
Quote from video: And just fit the new 11 speed rings. The 11 speed rear derailleur has different spacing on the hanger plate to allow the mech to move through the 11 speed cassette range.
Can you convert a 10 speed bike to 11 speed?
Luckily, many common and not-so-common wheelsets, as long as they’re at least 10-speed, can be upgraded to 11-speed by purchasing a new cassette body. The body is the part that attaches to the center of the hub and drives the wheel and bike when you pedal.
Can a 10 speed derailleur work on a 12 speed cassette?
-10 speed shifter sets your throw to match the rear cassette. -chains have the same outer dimension, the 12 speed derailleur would have narrower cogs than what required for a 10 speed. –As long as you can set the high/low limits on the derailleur to keep it on the cassette it should be fine.
Can I use a SRAM 11 speed derailleur on a 10 speed cassette?
A 11sp derailleur and shifter will work with a 10sp cassette.
Can I use a 10 speed derailleur on a 12 speed cassette?
Derailleur. The first thing you will need is a derailleur. More than likely, your old ten speed derailleur is going to struggle to work across a 12-speed cassette. Some of the old derailleurs do, but you miss out on gears as they are only indexed for 10 speeds, not 12.
Will any shifter work with any derailleur?
No, different maker or different model with different number of “speed” shifters have different pull ratio (i.e. the length of cable pulled by a single shift). Usually it’s safe to use different model with same number of gears from the same maker.
Will a 9 speed derailleur work on a 10 speed cassette?
Theoretically a 9 speed derailleur will work with a 10 speed shifter and cassette. On the MTB side the change to a different actuation ratio was made at 10 speed, so a 9 speed MTB derailleur will not work with a 10 speed shifter and cassette.
Are all 10 speed cassettes compatible?
All Shimano and SRAM cassettes up to 10 speed are broadly compatible. They all use Shimano’s Hyperglide II freehub body spline pattern. Cassettes with the same number of sprockets have the same sprocket spacing, sprocket width and overall width.
Will Shimano 10-speed cassette work with Campagnolo?
In other words, Shimano, SRAM, and Campagnolo 11-speed cassettes work just fine on each others’ drivetrains. So, one way to use an old 10-speed wheel with an 11-speed drivetrain is to install a Campagnolo freehub body and Campagnolo 11-speed cassette on it.
Can you use a 11 speed missing link on a 10-speed chain?
Quote from video: Link went through the 11:00 speed cassette. But I didn't hear anything it was just as smooth as can be so the short answer is it worked fine but to sort of quantify that answer better I thought.
What are the levels of Shimano components?
Shimano groupsets: different levels explained
- Claris: 8-speed.
- Sora: 9-speed.
- Tiagra: 10-speed.
- 105: 11-speed.
- Ultegra: 11-speed.
- Ultegra Di2: 11-speed electronic.
- Dura-Ace: 11-speed.
- Dura-Ace Di2: 11-speed electronic.
Are Shimano road and MTB shifters compatible?
Most 8- and 9-speed Shimano mountain bike and road kit is inter-compatible because they both use the same cable pull ratio. This means that you can use an 8 -or 9-speed mountain bike derailleur with road shifters or vice versa.
Can you use a road bike shifter on a mountain bike derailleur?
For example, many touring bikes with drop bars and, say, 10 speed STI’s (road shifters) will use a 9 speed mountain bike rear derailleur, like the Deore RD-M591 and enjoy perfect shifting.
Can you use any shifter with any derailleur?
No, different maker or different model with different number of “speed” shifters have different pull ratio (i.e. the length of cable pulled by a single shift). Usually it’s safe to use different model with same number of gears from the same maker.
