Hi all.

I'm just looking at buying a few bits and was wondering about compatibility.

I have a SRAM GX eagle cassette and want to run Shimano Slx rear mech, chain and crankset.

Will it cause any problems at all.

Also will a 11 speed crankset work with a 12 speed chain.

Thanks

Steve.

Yep should all work.

Shimano 12s chains can be slightly fussy with some non-12 speed chainrings, switching to a SRAM quicklink solves that in some but not all cases.

I'd use a SRAM (or at least a non-Shimano) 12s chain jut to be sure.

Should I just stick with a SRAM chainset then do you think.
