Hello everyone, I’m about to buy a new specialized Diverge sport carbon with Sram Apex 1 groupset . My previews Gravel bike was a Diverge with claris groupset . Will I see a big difference and any of you have some feedback to give me on the SRAM Apex? Thank you very much and have a good day !
I just has the SAME EXACT thing happen today with my 8 month old Sram RedAXS front derailleur. Just got a new frameset and built it up last night, the front derailleur was absolutely perfectly fine until i went to install it on the new bike.
Rear derailleur is good, I've preferred SRAM shift logic already (I have it on my gravel bike), I really like the look of the new force crankset, and the SRAM app is much better than the Shimano one in my experience. I was resistant to buying a bike with force - but bought a bike on a great black Friday deal and Ultegra Di2 wasn't an option.
Shimano Deore. I ride SRAM GX and it’s really good for the price, but the SX and NX stuff isn’t up to par. Especially the SX. NX is OK, maybe closer to Deore.
There are some positives, like more even spacing between gears and a stronger clutch/less chainslap. However those ends don't justify the means to me. I've also been going back and forth with Sram support for over a month and have had multiple bike shops take a look, so it isn't a setup issue. If you're thinking about 'upgrading', at least demo a bike with Transmission first. Share Sort by ...
I know you can't mix a SRAM shifter with a Shimano derailleur (and vice-versa), at least according to Google since each 'click' moves the derailleur a different amount for each manufacturer. But what about cassettes and front chainrings? Has anybody successfully used a SRAM cassette with a Shimano derailleur or vice versa?
I have the choice of 2 bikes, one has ultegra Di2 & one has SRAM rival eTap AXS, the SRAM one is a better frame, they are around the same price. What's the difference between the two groupsets?
Between the Shimano Deore 6100 series vs SRAM GX Eagle 12 Speed drivetrains, which would you all prefer? It seems like most folks prefer Shimano in general. It also seems like the Shimano Deore is better than the SX and NX groupsets and is a very capable drive train. However, how does it compare to the SRAM GX Eagle series drive train?
