banna Posted August 2, 2011 Share Just a quick question. If you put a mix of Shimano and SRAM components on your bike e.g. XTR m980 crankset/front derailleur and SRAM XO shifters/rear derailleur , would that have any negative impact on your shifting? In other words is it better for shifting if you have a groupset, rather than mixing between brands? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can use a mix of everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
