I have read of the incompatibility of these two manufacturers because of the shifting ratio, but am left somewhat confused...
I have ESP 9.0 Gripshift and love them, but am looking to change the carbon 9.0 rear mech and 7.0 front mech, which while perfectly functional are looking tired. I am also unfamiliar with SRAM as a manufacturer.
Do I need to stick with SRAM kit or could I use a Shimano front or rear mech?
I should also mention that I ride an XT 9-speed cassette with no problems.
Thanks...
