Hallo! I have a sram 10 speed setup (that doesn't work very well with the shifts of the largest cog -> t-rex hope 40t) and i am thinking to go the 11 speed route.
I am about to get:
-sram gx shifter
-sram gx rear deralleur
-either the 1130 cassette or shimano slx/xt
The sram 1130 cassette weighs 530g, so a lighter alternative would be the slx or the xt 11-42.
Would the system work fine with a shimano cassette? Opinions please.
Also, i would like the opinions in the durability and good fuction of the sram drivetrain (gx shifter + gx derailleur + nx cassette)
Thanks!
PS. the 1150 cassette is a no-go cause it also needs the xd freehub.
Is your wheel one that can't take an XD? GX cassette is a pretty good balance of weight and price otherwise at about 390g for £75 (and the drivers are lighter too) and would give you the extra range to boot. Honestly I don't think you can get the real benefit of 11 speed without it
Go for the Shimano XT 11-46 cassette
1. The gx derailleur will work with xt 11-46 cassette or should i stick with xt 11-42?
2. My deemax wheels came with 1070 sram cassette. Will the 11 speed xt cassette fit in the freehub?
Anybody?
Look at the sunrace cassettes.
hope uses the Sram RDs with their 10-44T cassette so I would imagine the 46T is fine. Worth checking the capacity if it's listed.
Yes, XT 11-42 will work fine.
I saw 11-46 sunrace cassette, seems perfect, no huge jumps.
The sram gx derailleur will work with the huge 46 cog?
Or should i stick with max 42t?
anyone?
Not too sure if the Sram rear derailleur will do a 46 tooth rear sprocket but Shimano 11 speed XT or SLX certainly will .
sram gx here with xt 11-46 cassette no problems
