Post by: Beaumont88 on September 06, 2021, 11:11:14 AM

So yeah as the title says, full groupsets are rarer than rocking horse shit at this point so im tryin to mix and match a groupset... Would this all work together im mainly worried about the crankset

Yup. The biggest concern is rear derailleur/ shifter combo. Since those another 12 spd Shimano, you’re all set. Most of my bikes have Shimano shifter and rear derailleur with SRAM cranks and cassettes.

Yeah i made the assumption that if they are both deore m5100 11 speed that they would form the same groupset?? n then its just been a nightmare finding 165 cranks (cause the p9 bb is so low) i thaught well it must work cause im on a deore 10speed set up at the minute with truvativ cranks
But always best to double check

For info, since 11 speed came out, both SRAM and Shimano use the same pull ratio (or near enough) to mix and match shifter and rear mech, across both 11s and 12s.

For example, I'm using an 11s SRAM shifter with a 12s shimano rear mech.
