XTR M9000 and wide range cassettes

[Traveler]

I’m on a XTRM9000 1x11 setup on one bike; others are all on GX Eagle.

 

Has anyone had experience setting up M9000 with a wide range cassette. The cassette I want to fit is the Leonardi Factory General Lee 9.45.

 

Any Hubbers running an 11-46 with an XTR Derailleur?

Ran it on SLX M7000 adn XT M8000 derailleur so really should have no issues at all on Sunrace cassettes. Shimano themselves max an 11-46 cassette as well but the gear spacing from 1st to 2nd sucks....Also the Sunrace is cheap AF and lasts long.

of course you can!

I run a 11-46 with 36 chainring on my one bike and 9-46 E-thirteen on my dual with 34t oval.

both with KMC chains and no issues

Both works/shifts perfectly

Thanks, will also use KMC Chain. If the e-thirteen works with 9-46 with XTR, then the 9-45 will be just fine.

Thanks, but no interest in Sunrace cassettes, just too heavy for this project.

what about this..

same weight (325g) as the Leonardi cassette.

Thanks very much Dewald, did not consider the KCNC.
