Anyone who can confirm if a HG11 shifter (5100, 7000, 8000) can be compatible with the m8130 rear derailleur (linkglide)?

 

1x11 setup, sunrace 11-46 cassette, 34t chainring.

I'm not sure as you'll need to give the specific model number of the shifter. But if it's mixing and matching Dyna-sis and Linkglide, then no, I'm pretty sure they're not compatible.

From a quick Google search:

"LinkGlide (LG) shifters and derailleurs have a different cable pull ratio than the older Dyna-Sys (HG) components, making them incompatible."

I accidentally bought the xt linkglide derailleur from Banana industries.   I bought a 11 speed cues shifter to go with it.  You can use 11 speed hyper glide cassettes doesn't need to be the linkgllide one.
