Yee of little faith 😂. I actually think that one of these may work. Now before anyone tries to tell me that it is SRAM and the cable pull is different blah blah blah. On the rear mech I agree, but not on the Front. I ran a Shimano - SRAM combo for many a happy kilometers when having more than one ring in the front was still the rage

Even on the rear, in many instances Shimano/Sram work happily together .... 😊

But please only run Shimano chains on Shimano Cassettes, the same with SRAM. I wonder if KMC will bring out a cassettes and or if E-thirteen has some chains, otherwise they're screwed 😁

I like worms .... 🤪😂

At the moment I have a Race Face NW chainring, a Shimano XTR chain, a 12sp Garbaruk Cassette and a Sram GX AXS rear derailleur, and they all are the best of pals, it work & shift perfectly every time ... ☺️.

Granted like Robert said, although its a Garbaruk casstte, it is a Shimano (Microspline) replacement and my chain is also Shimano, so we all good ... 😊.
