Can i use sram cassette with shimano




















Thanks - it's for a new build which I havn't done before so could have gone either way however picked up the sram cassette cheap so heading that way now. I seem to prefer the shimano shifters and I'm not really amused by srams geo-blocking so it will be a bit of mix with shimano shifter and derailleur, sram cassette, cranks and chainring, wheels will be new with an XD driver.

Also just put a sunrace on with a xt derailluer - including a goat link. Controlled by an x1 shifter. Changes great. Austen Likes Bikes and Dirt. Are the chains cross compatible as well?

Austen said:. Hi ktastrphe, Did the goatlink make any difference? I didn't test without the goat link - I don't think it would get into the 46t without it?

At the time, freewheels were the component that took the most technology to produce. Shimano, however, was so confident in the reliability of his freewheels that he backed them with a bold guarantee — any defective freewheel would be replaced by two. The original Shimano freewheel Photo Courtesy Shimano. Shozaburo Shimano led his company and developed bicycle components until his death in His son, Shozo Shimano, took over as the next president. With high quality and reliable products, Shimano has established itself as a benchmark component brand in the industry.

Their stated mission is to promote health and happiness with outdoor products that help people enjoy nature and the world around us. Philanthropy: Shimano is one of the founding members of the EcoMobility Alliance , an international partnership of people and companies that work to improve EcoMobility.

Scott King was the company's attorney. Stan R. SRAM was founded in Chicago in The company began with a single product — the Grip Shift. The Grip Shift was an indexed gear shifter that wrapped around the ends of drop handlebars. Traditionally, riders had shift levers mounted to the frame, but Grip Shift allowed riders to change gears without removing their hands from the handlebars.

This growth has led it to become the second-largest component manufacturer in the world with an expansive catalog of bike parts. One of SRAM's key goals is to be the most exciting component manufacturer in the industry. It has worked toward this goal with innovative products that have produced notable shifts in the industry. Philanthropy: World Bicycle Relief WBR is a non-profit that specializes in large-scale, comprehensive bicycle distribution programs to aid poverty relief in developing countries.

Much of the bike technology we take for granted today is the result of Shimano's and SRAM's innovations. Here are a few key products they've developed that have helped shape modern cycling. Gear changes became more precise and faster as riders could select the gear without having to fiddle with the position of a friction shifter. Indexed shifting is the basis for how modern mechanical shifters work. STI is a shifting system that allows cyclists to shift gears, operate the brakes, and steer without removing their hands from the handlebars.

STI integrated shift levers into the brake hoods, creating the blueprint for modern road, cyclocross, and gravel bike shifters as we know it. Rapid Fire was a flat-bar version of STI, using a pod with trigger style levers clamped to the bar. Trigger-style shifters are now the most common type of shifter used on mountain bikes.

Many brands now produce pedals compatible with Shimano SPD style cleats. It is one of the most ubiquitous clipless pedal systems. Di2 made electronic shifting the new standard for top-of-the-line group. The Grip Shift design still sees use today on some mountain bikes, commuters, and other flat-bar bicycles. Like previous attempts at single-chainring drivetrains, XX1 simplified shifting by removing the front derailleur.

This configuration is now the standard for most mountain bikes and is popular on cyclocross and gravel bikes as well. AXS introduced a new speed road bike group and the first wireless electronic mountain bike group. Shimano and SRAM have been competing for the last 30 years. Competition has bred many fantastic cycling components. This section covers some of the key tech and design differences in certain Shimano and SRAM components. Shimano's STI shifters separate the control of up and downshifts into two different shift levers.

Instead of two separate levers, SRAM's DoubleTap uses a single paddle-shaped lever behind the brake lever which is fixed to handles both up and downshifts. Pushing this lever one click inward shifts the drivetrain in one direction. Pushing the lever further in, past the first click, causes the drivetrain to shift in the opposite direction. Both shifter designs are intuitive once a rider has learned how to use them.

Both designs also have the capability to downshift multiple gears in a single lever stroke. It comes down to rider preference and ergonomics. Some riders are picky about the shape of the shifter hoods the rubber area on top of the shifter where the rider places their hands.

Shimano and SRAM both offer a variety of hood shapes and finding the ideal one may require some experimentation. A Shimano XTR trigger shifter — the upshift lever bottom can be activated in either direction. Two shift levers are housed in a pod attached to the underside of the handlebar. This is the most popular shifter style for modern mountain bikes. The main difference in function is that Shimano's Rapid Fire trigger shifter features "2way-release," which allows the upshift lever to move in both directions.

This means upshifts can be performed both by pushing the lever with the thumb or pulling it with an index finger. Again, it comes down to rider preference whether this feature is valuable.

Riders used to pushing with their thumbs for both up and downshifts will be able to transition between Shimano and SRAM shifters without much thought. Shimano is known for its Hollowtech crankarms. Hollowtech refers to a hollow, aluminum crankarm, generally made from two halves joined together. It maintains the stiffness of a solid crankarm while significantly decreasing the weight.

For its higher-end crank offerings, SRAM uses carbon fiber. Carbon fiber is made from carbon sheets and fibers bonded in resin. It has a higher strength-to-weight ratio than steel. Both materials and crank designs perform well. Carbon is more common for high-end cranks. Shimano is one of the few manufacturers that sticks to aluminum. It claims the Hollowtech II design offers the same performance as carbon with greater durability. Both brands use their own spindle designs. Shimano uses Hollowtech II, which is a 24mm spindle.

The advantages and disadvantages of the different spindle designs can be debated to death and it's a topic that will require its own article. In general, a crank from any brand will require a specific bottom bracket to be compatible with both the frame and crankarm spindle.

Single-chainring drivetrains are now the most popular option for modern mountain bikes because of their increased simplicity and reliability. These drivetrains have even found a place on many cyclocross and gravel bikes.

Shimano eliminated many of the issues mountain bikers had with front derailleurs e. Past, Present and Future. The Team Behind the Products. As standards evolve, the number of compatibility issues rise. We have created this simple manual to explain the history and talk through the various formats available. If you have a Campagnolo cassette, you require a Campagnolo freehub, they are not compatible with Shimano or Sram.

If you have a cassette or freehub you wish to use and simply want to ensure your parts are compatible, you can skip to the chart at the bottom of this page. It is distinguished by its 13 splines, with a keyed wider slot in order to align the cogs so they shift properly.

There were several variations of these HG freehubs to be aware of. When 9 speed was introduced, they used narrower chains and had less spacing between cogs compared to 8 speed. The overall cassette width was exactly the same and you do not need to run spacers with either cassette. Shimano had a mind for 11 speed, so when they introduced 10 speed, they made the spacing much narrower than 9 speed.

A Shimano 10 speed cassette is even narrower than a 9 speed so you need to run a 1mm spacer behind the cassette in this case.

When 11 speed mountain cassettes came out, they would fit on the speed freehubs without the use of a spacer. Road 11 speed, however, would not fit unless you were to remove one of the inner cogs.

There was a short period of time when some freehubs were made that were only compatible with 10 speed Shimano cassettes. You cannot run 11 or 12 speed cassettes on these 10 speed only freehubs.

Since 11 speed mountain cassettes fit on speed freehubs, this HG road freehub is intended for road 11 speed cassettes. You can, however, run an 8, 9 or 11 speed mountain cassette on these with a 1. If you want to run your Shimano 10 speed cassette, you can add a 1mm and 1. However, when Shimano released their 12 speed it ended up using a completely different design MicroSpline, explained later.

When Shimano mountain cassettes grew to 12 speed, they introduced a long-awaited freehub revision - MicroSpline. The MS freehubs are characterized by being much shorter and having 23 splines HG-type has 13 splines. The increase helps distribute forces thus allowing for lighter alloy freehubs to be used. The largest cogs are mounted to an alloy spider, while the four smaller steel cogs slide onto the freehub body individually. The smallest cog is only 10t 11t was a standard.

The spacing is the same between 11 and 12 speed MicroSpline cassettes, there is just 1 less sprocket with 11spd.
