Will a road 11 speed rear mech work with an MTB 11 speed Shifter? A short or medium cage 105 rear mech is a lot cheaper than the mtb versions. Haven't found any cheaper 11 speed Mtb rear mechs anywhere.
I know mixing and matching 9 speed road and mtb worked without a problem but not sure about newer systems.
Thanks
I have just set up a 11 speed shifter and 10 speed rear mech, all XT and they all seem to work perfectly. So, Dynasys 1 mech and Dynnasys 2 shifter, regardless to what is said is fine. I did put a mech dropper as it wouldnt clear the 46t sprocket as well.
I put a 105 mech on a Zee shifter and wouldnt work on 10 sp though. So had to get a Zee mech as wanted a short arm on a hack bike to work and I thought the 105 mechs were pennies to get round it.
Shimano 11s road has quite a different cable pull ratio to Shimano 11s MTB so no, it won't work.
Thought that would be the case, thanks for the info.
You can get 11spd road flat bar shifters if you want to run a road rear mech?
