new SLX 1x11

foz · Jul 25, 2016

Has anyone tried it yet? Any comparison with the new groups from SRAM?

And will the rear mech fit my 95 parkpre frame, or have rear mechs now got 23 different mounting standards, as bottom brackets now seem to?

Can the gear indicator window be taken off the shifter?

And is it correct that shimano 11 speed cassettes fit standard 8/9/10 speed hubs?

Thanks, and please excuse my ignorance of MTB stuff that's newer than 20 years old

Re:

Reports on STW suggest it'll be the end of August until it's available. The cassette should fit on any the 10sp does.

Yes, the rear mech will fit your frame; yes, the Shimano 11sp cassettes fit a standard 8/9/10speed freehub (due to having an 11T cog as opposed to SRAM's 10T); yes, it looks like the shifter windows will be removable (on the i-Spec ones at least, I suspect the band-clamp ones will be slightly different but still removable).
