Sam,
It sounds like your question has been resolved, but I used XTR M900
for the drive train and wheels on my Rivendell custom and am most
satisfied with the results.

Some Rivs come with 132 mm rears to accept either road or mountain hubs.
With steel, you can usually spread the dropouts by hand to get a MTN hub in
a 130 opening. I would not try that on an older 126 space.
The derailler of course, has nothing to do with the hub size. I have an XT
on my road Salu
Front half of my Rambouillet is Dura-Ace/Ultegra, back half is XT... Works
fine...

If the rear hub is too wide for the dropouts, you
Or use JTEC shiftmates to marry Campy with Shimano/SRAM for rear D's. I've
got a Campy brifter working fine with a long cage XTR derailleur on my newly
set up Atlantis dirt roader. The front one works fine with the front
Ultegra triple D without JTEC intervention.

Sure. Only issue might be a MTB rear hub is 135 OLN, and a road frame
usually is 130. No idea
Can you use Shimano Deore or XTR on a road bike? Curious because I will
building up a Yves Gomez soon and that is what I have lying around. Thanks
