<p>Actually, the 9sp mtn. rear derailleurs do work with both 9 and 10sp road shifters. Other than that, this is correct info. </p>

<p>I am in the same process. Putting 11-36 SRAM cassette on my single-speed as a gravel ride option. I got a Shimano Zee RD - really compact and sturdy but is dyna-sys (10spd MTB ratio). Since I don't have STI levers (I have Hylex hydraulic levers only) I am just putting a Zee front shifter on there (somehow?!) for the time being until I figure out a better way to get the dyna-sys ratios. Got to figure out how to fit it to my 1-1/4" bar though (have flattened FSA wing bar).</p>

<p>On the front end I have a regular FSA 42T 130bcd ring and using an 8spd chain. Hoping with the clutch and compact RD I won't need to change this to a wide-narrow but obviously be switching to a 10spd chain. I won't be racing cross with the gears so it should get a smoother ride. Being able to remove and convert back to SS for cross season is key though.</p>
<p>Would be cool if JTek Shiftmate had a road->dyna-sys option. Or could do this to a bar-end/DT shifter:</p>

<p>I have one ... they are great and the cool colors are awesome. Work spectacularly. But ... without a clutch they are not foolproof. I ran a 1x9 on my mountain bike (no clutch obviously) and only had one chain pop off so it works really well. I would go for it ... unless extreme peanut butter mud or realllllllyyyyy chattery I don't think you will have a problem.</p>

<p>I looking at the new Race Face Narrow/ wide chain-rings for CX and running a 1x10 set up so hopefully not having the clutch won't matter that much, but it would be nice. </p>

<p>Just to clarify - 9 won't work with 9, 10 won't work with 10. You need 10 speed shifters and 9 speed rear deraileur. SLX is actually a really good compromise. The big bummer is that you cannot use the Shadow+ stuff so you don't get the clutch benefits. Otherwise, smooth as silk</p>

<p>Won't work. The pull ratio on the Shimano 10 speed mountain stuff is compatible with nothing :) If you put a 9 speed mountain derailleur on a 10 speed road shift you are golden - they have the exact same pull ratio. Similarly, the 11 speed stuff matches up with nothing.</p>
<p>Buyer beware - I have read lots of Franken-bike stories where people, by modifying the location of the anchor bolt/cable setup have made some of this work but it that is a buyer beware thing. Officially, the 9…</p>

<p>In your case - it will be awesome. I set up a buddy with 105 shifters (5700) with an XT (770 if I remember correctly) and it is flawless and he can run up to a 36 rear cog.</p> It should work.

<p>It should work. I had my wife's bike on a 105 shifter with an XT rd and an 11-32 cassette before.</p>
