Anyone running a mix up of Sram eagle and Shimano 1x? Seen a few post around that the two now work together. Looking at getting the XTR shifter and mech to run with some X01 cassette.
Who's done it and what's your thoughts?
Running slx m7100 mech and shifter with sram nx cassette and chain. Cheap and very cheerful for me.
XTR cassette with AXS Eagle mech/shifter.
Run absolutely fine together. I did comment in another post though that I think the micro adjust of the AXS makes it easier to fine tune the setup than relying on cable tension/barrel adjuster which may help.
Running XT shifter and mech with XO1 chain and GX cassette.
Works perfectly in all gears with no set up issues.
I'm also running the I-spec EV shifter on the Code levers.
That will work fine. I’ve run sram cassette with shimano 12 speed for a while. If you want to save yourself a few quid just go xt mech, I recently took an xtr mech apart to replace a snapped cage, other than the cage which is made from carbon and in my eyes inferior to a metal cage as it can’t take the knocks, and a couple of the linkages they are identical, same spring, and clutch. You are only saving 30-40g with the xtr. XO1 chain any day GX chains are junk.
XT cranks, shifter and mech, with GX cassette. I originally had a Shimano chain but that was very noisy, so I swapped to a SRAM chain which is much better (and blingy gold 😎). No issues to report, the new XT shifters feel great. When (if?) the cassette wears out, I’ll probably go full Shimano tho.
