Help needed with checking dimensions specs

Greeting,

 

I need knowledge in regards if the following components will be compatible with my Giant Stance 2 27.5 2015.

 

https://www.chainreactioncycles.com/za/en/shimano-slx-m7000-1x11-drivetrain-groupset/rp-prod148625

 

The link above is the groupset I am looking at. My bike has an FSA bottom bracket bb-cfm92 24mm Alivio derailleur 3x9.

 

So the question is will my current bottom bracket be compatible or do I need to get the following bottom bracket that the link states are compatible; BB-MT800/BB-MT800-PA?

 

 

Thank you in advance.

have you looked at getting 1x12?

not dissing the shimano but you can get a SRAM groupset, with LOCAL support for RR5800.

I'm sure you can get a better price somewhere.

or just get the upgrade kit, keep your current crank and fit a single chainring.

If I go the SRAM route which personally I like more. Will I not need to replace the fee hub on the rear as a heared that it does not fit nicely the  SRAM cassette on a shimano hub?

the NX cassette fits on the standard hub, no XD driver needed

yes as long as your casette is 11t, you wouldn't need an XD driver and can keep your current freewheel body

 

You sure, not how I see it. Besides why bother with 11spd if you are spending the cash to upgrade?

I intially wanted 2x10. Then I spoke to a cycle tech and mentioned to me that the style of riding that I currentlly do a 1x system will also do the trick.

 

I saw this now at cwc which is not bad;
