FWIW, there is no reason you can't run a Shimano 11 sp cassette with your otherwise SRAM 11sp setup. Just pick the cogs that work for you. I do the opposite, running a SRAM 11-36 on an otherwise Shimano setup.

I still don't see your reasoning. If someone is bottomed out in a 39-25, the reason they're miserable is that their gearing is too high, not that they have two chainrings.

Really? A Shimano cassette is compatible with a SRAM Force derailleur? I didn't know that. If I can run an XT (or XTR) 11-46 with a Force derailleur that would solve a bunch of things ...

You're correct. He was overgeared. My spell-check just suggested "overheated." And he was that, also. As I said, the smallest cassette I'll run is an 11-34, and, even for pure road rides, I like something bigger.

Shimano 11-46 cassettes have a nasty jump from 37 to 46 on the last two cogs. This might be fine if you want tighter spacing on the bottom 9 cogs (11-32) but if you're looking for a smoother transition to the bailout gears, Sunrace 11 speed cassettes go 36-40-46 across the top, at the price of bigger jumps in the middle of the range. |

Just checked the SRAM site. The "official" capacity of the Force derailleur is a 42t. But other people on the Forum have had success with an 11-40 Shimano cassette with a GS 8050 derailleur. Don't know if you can push the limits with SRAM the same way ... Last edited by XXtwindad; 04-12-2019 at 12:05 PM. |

I'm using the already mentioned Sunrace 11-46t cassette for the exact reason mentioned, better jumps between the biggest cogs. I'm actually using an SRAM Etap WiFli rear derailleur(with a WT Roadlink) for shifting duties, works great! |

Currently I am 40 front 10-44 back
Toying with idea of 9-46 out back ... and having another more road setup which 46 front 11-40 |

E 13
E Thirteen just released a bunch more sizes in their 11 speed cassettes.
In addition to the 9-46, they also not have 9-34, 9-39, and 9-42 |

Really intrigued by that 9-42. I thinks it's a ten speed, though.

Nope- 11
Nope- 11 speed according to their site and the email I received this morning.
