Rear derailleur compatibility
I was wondering if you could use a 9 speed mountain bike shifter with brifters. Specifically the 9 speed Acera rear derailleur with the Shimano sora st-r3000.

Nine-sp mtb cassette should have the same spacing as 9-sp road cassette. Therefore, the shifter/derailleur should have the same spacing intervals. So yes, it should work. My question is why? Did you crash and break the Sora RD?
