I'm running SRAM X9 shifters and I want to fit a Shimano XT front mech.

I know that for rear mech, these shifters are specific for SRAM and you can't run Shimano as these have different pull lengths from the SRAM ones, but for the front mech, the pull is the same isn't it?

In other words, you can run SRAMX9 front shifters with Shimano XT Front Mech without problems, correct?
