SRAM mechs with Shimano shifters?

Grannygrinder · Feb 4, 2011

I've got a M570 9 speed shifter, i've also got a SRAM x-9 rear mech.
Question is, are they compatible?

nope.

As above,nope

Shimano use a 2:1 ratio and Sram use a 1:1 ratio, iirc

Yes, yes and apparently yes...

you can run almost any shifter with any mech.

I have never used one just know of them (I think I noticed them on good old SJS Cylces website)
