MariusC Posted February 29, 2012 Share I want to upgrade my groupset but don't have enough to do it all at once. So I would be doing it piece by piece, But what I am not sure of is if the new parts will work with my current groupset. Currently I've got Shimano Acera. First thing I would like to get is Shimano M770 xt 9spd rapidfire shifters. Would it work?All Inputs would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Fastbastard Mayhem Posted February 29, 2012 Share As far as I know, Acera is 8 speed... If so, then no - it won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariusC Posted February 29, 2012 Share So I take it 10spd is the way to go? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gummibear Posted February 29, 2012 Share So I take it 10spd is the way to go? If you can wait and save then yes. Nothing wrong with 10 speed SLX,very good for the price and only a little heavier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
