Yeah also looking for one. Ison list it.

That’s got to be a mistake surely? The 11-42 has horrible big jumps as it is, 11-46 would be terrible! Could you even get a 10 spd mech to work with a sprocket so large? The MX8 11 speed is 11-46, maybe they got the product page wrong?

It’s not even listed on SunRace’s own website (yet?), wasn’t aware a 46T version of the MX3 was on the cards, only ever seen the 40 and 42s listed

Speak to the lads at hopkinsons in horbury they also use ebay .he has all the sunrace cassettes 😉

The 11-42 has horrible big jumps as it is,

Well it has one gappy(ish) jump at the bottom but it’s not that bad even the Shimano XT 11speed 46 goes from 37 to 46 at the top end, If they’ve just gone from 36-42 to 37-46 it won’t be any worse.

11-13-15-18-21-24-28-32-36-42

Assuming the 10 speed 11-46 would go
11-13-15-18-21-24-28-32-37-46?

Compare to the 11speed options it’s not really any worse or different except on one jump.

Fortunately Shimano 11 speed mechs work fine with their 10 speed shifters, so an SLX M7000 or XT M8000 does the job just fine.

Maybe it’s just me then, I have one on my 5 and I never feel like I’m in the right gear!

Yeah, not worried about the jumps and intend to use an 11 speed shimano mech, which will be fine!

I thought Shim 10spd and 11spd were different cable pull ratios?

I thought Shim 10spd and 11spd were different cable pull ratios?

On road yes, on MTB they’re the same, or close enough that it doesn’t matter, it certainly works just fine (better in fact as the mech geo is better for big sprockets)

11, 13, 15, 18, 21, 24, 28, 34, 40, 46

OK, so that’s not too bad, same steps as the 11 speed but swapped the 32-36 jump for a single 34

Has anyone used this with a SRAM GX (10spd) rear mech?

I’ve got one and it’s fine with the OneUp 42t extension but I assume 46t could be a step too far seeing as it’s only rated to 36t on their product page…!

If you need a new mech, and cassette (and so, presumably, chain), why wouldn’t you just pay the extra £25 for an SLX 11 speed shifter and have done with it?

So this doesn’t exist.
Where have STW got it from then?

Er yes it does…. STW got it from from ISON. Via the link I posted. Which was what they said in the fgf article. The link comes from that article.

It does exist on Google images.

Ah, just spotted u can scroll through the list of mx3’s

If you need a new mech, and cassette (and so, presumably, chain), why wouldn’t you just pay the extra £25 for an SLX 11 speed shifter and have done with it?

In my case it’s a combination of cross-compatibility with other bikes* (standardised drivetrain components) and 10 speed chain and cassettes still being cheaper and lasting (marginally) longer and being a little more mud tolerant. And I’ve already go the 11 speed mechs so they’re not a cost.

I’d still be fully on 8 or 9 speed if I could get decent wide ratio and clutched mechs, some of mine still are 9 speed 🙂

A better question would be why would I spend the extra? 11 speed won’t make me go faster 😉

*Except the wife’s bike is 11speed, but I don’t borrow her bits!

Yeah also looking for one. Ison list it.

I thought you were staying 9sp XTR forever? 🙂
I seem to remember you giving me some stick when I bought 10 or 11 speed….!!

Tbf Pete that was in 2009…. and you said you would never tour on 700c, or buy a 29er

Yeah? And? Hehehee!
Can I have your 9sp XTR stuff? To put on my 700c tourer..? 😀

3 xtr cassettes in the garage you are welcome to. If only you replied to fb messages….

I saw one on ebay the same day as the FGF it featured in. Was tempted but then thought new mech etc and changed my mind.

There
