New bike has come with a Raceface Ride chain set on it, i dont have the correct puller to remove it yet (doesn't use the traditional RF removal system). The chainset has a shimano 12 speed ring on it. I am transferring my AXS setup to the bike.

Will my X01 12 speed chain work ok with the shimano spec front ring? Or will it end in a ball of flames and instant fatalities? Or maybe not quite so bad, wear the new chain out, throw the chain at any sign of gnar etc etc.

Help is appreciated!

Yes, it might even work better depending on how muddy it is. In the wet the extra clearance from a SRAM chain is better.
