Can I use a 10 speed cassette on a 9 speed derailleur?
A 9-speed Shimano derailleur will work on a 10-speed cassette if the shifter is also made by Shimano and designed for road bikes. It’s also possible to combine a new 9-speed derailleur by Campagnolo with a 10-speed shifter and cassette made by Campagnolo.
Can you use a 10 speed cassette on a 9 speed bike?
Shimano did not change the overall cassette width or the rear wheel spacing when changing to 10 speeds. Instead, they made the chain and cogs narrower, allowing more gears to fit into the same space. You can put a new 10 or 11 speed cassette on any of the older 9 speed hubs.
Is Shimano 105 compatible with SRAM?
The answer is yes. SRAM and Shimano cassettes share the same hub uptake pattern and sprocket spacing and are interchangeable. As are chains from both makes. The maximum teeth count for the short cage version of the 105 derailleur is 30 teeth and the minimum is 11 teeth.
Are SRAM cassettes compatible with Shimano?
SRAM and Shimano cassettes, on either road or mountain bike, are interchangeable with each other as the spacing is the same between the sprockets.
Can I use a 10 speed derailleur on a 11 speed cassette?
You can use the 10 speed rear dérailleur on an 11 speed cassette with no issues at all but you can not use 10 speed shifters on an 11 speed cassette.
Are 9 and 10 speed cassettes the same width?
For the Shimano brand, their 9-speed cassettes have an extra cog added to the 8-speed cassette, while the overall width remains the same. The same thing goes for the 10-speed where it still has the same width as an 8-speed cassette. This makes the 10-speed slightly narrower.
Which is better 9 speed or 10 speed?
Depending on what manufacturer you go for, 10 speed is usally only one more speed than a 9 speed, and not even so because your gear ratio don’t change much. Ten speeds are harder to deal with in setting up because they tend to be more finicky.
Are 9 speed and 10 speed cassettes the same width?
A 9 speed cassette and a ten speed cassette both fill a freehub body completely. ie. they are the same width. The distance between the 9 speed gears is ever so slightly wider than on a 10 speed cassette (hence why 10 speed chains need thinner side plates than 9 speed ones.
Is SRAM 10-speed compatible with Shimano?
SRAM’s cassettes and chains are compatible with all of Shimano’s groupsets, and vice versa. Likewise, Shimano and SRAM buyers have the freedom to mix different levels of chains and cassettes so long as they are designed for the same kind of transmission.
What is the SRAM equivalent of Shimano 105?
Turning to its mechanical groupsets, Apex is SRAM’s entry level and roughly comparable to Tiagra; like Tiagra it’s 10-speed. Next up the ladder is the 11-speed Rival, which was named to rival Shimano 105. SRAM Force is top of the mechanical groupset hierarchy and roughly comparable to the old 11-speed Shimano Ultegra.
Is SRAM 10 speed compatible with Shimano?
Can you mix SRAM and Shimano drivetrain?
Most importantly, YOU CANNOT mix Shimano and SRAM hydraulic brake parts. It’s more than a performance issue — it’s a safety issue. The SRAM rear derailleur (mech) will not work with a Shimano shifter as is; the cable pull and shift activation ratios are not the same between the two systems.
What is the difference between a SRAM and a Shimano cassette?
Sram HG-style cassettes are largely the same spacing as Shimano, with the 10 speed exception. The Sram 10 speed cassette is the same width as 8/9 speed, whereas with Shimano it’s 1mm narrower. Compatibility and Spacer Chart : XD 11 & 12 Speed
What spacers do I need for Shimano/SRAM HG 11 speed cassettes?
Works with Shimano/Sram HG 11 speed cassettes without spacers. If you want to run your Shimano 10 speed cassette, you can add a 1mm and 1.75mm Mavic spacer. If you want to run an 8-10 speed Sram HG or Shimano 8/9 speed cassette, you can run a 1.75mm Mavic spacer.
Which 10-speed cassettes are Shimano compatible with?
SRAM, IRD, Miche, BBB and SunRace also offer 10-speed Shimano-compatible cassettes — see additional sections that follow the Shimano section. Harris Cyclery sells some but not all Shimano 10-speed cassettes. The table below, though, is a complete as it can be made as of April 2016, in order to indicate compatibility and interchangeability.
Which freehub should I use with my SRAM NX 12 speed cassette?
The Sram NX 12 speed cassette uses the Shimano HG freehub body, so you need to watch out for this one. A good way to check compatibility is to see how many teeth your Sram cassette has. If the smallest cog is 10T, it should use an XD-style freehub, but if it’s 11T then it likely uses a Shimano HG freehub.
