The current cassette on the bike has a 29 tooth cog so the chain and derailleur have room for a larger cog.....reason I ask is that I just saw a Shimano MTB that had a first gear that was 8 teeth different from "second" gear.




Yes, you can. The problem is locating the single Campy cog. You might be able to search on ebay. I say buy another cassette. Its much easier then looking for just one.
