    @BrianRPaterson Před rokem +2

    About the lack of ridges on the 11-speed trigger. I recommend chopping down a rubber brake-lever cover and sliding the end onto the thumb lever (the one that tales you up the block and into the bigger cogs).
    The rubber covers only cost a couple of bucks, but they make the lever more comfy and way less slippery when the weather gets hot or wet.
    Cheers

    I’ve tried a 10sp Saint shifter with a 12sp M7100 Derailleur and a 10sp Deore 11-48 cassette and 10sp XTR or 10/11sp LG500 chain. It was finicky to dial in the b-tension, but once I did, it’s shifted flawlessly for the last 4 months of daily. The Saint shifter feels really nice, very similar to the 11sp XT shifter, but with lighter action.
    On my other bike, I have a full 11sp XT drivetrain with a OneUp 50t upgrade to the cassette and derailleur cage. The cassette has been through 3 new chains, and I just replaced the 11t and13t worn cogs, but everything else still shifts sweet. However, it looks like they don’t make the 50t anymore, so I’ll be trying out the 11sp M5100 cassette when this one finally wears out.

    Chain: Shimano CN-HG601 126L shortened to 120L
    Cassette: M5100 11-51
    Rear mech: M5100
    Shifter: XT M8000 11sp I Spec II
    Brake levers: XT M8000
    By the way I upgraded my M6000 brake calipers with M8100 calipers with their hoses.
    So it’s all black now to fit bike color.
    It really shifts fine, drives fine and brakes perfectly.

XTR shifter cable and housing are some really really worth thing to consider, the thingy too. Force needed to shift to lower gear is at least reduced by 40-50% really nice and its same to multiple shifts. Chain also sounds much quieter I bet it’s because M8100 mech has bearings in jockey wheels.

Then I saw this vid and started wondering if the entire 5100 groupset might be a better solution. This would be going on a 2023 Specialized Rockhopper. Wanted to ask if this fits any standard HG hub or if it requires special spacing in the rear of the frame or anything like that.

      @@LoveMTB Great. The only reason I ask is because Shimano lists two different part numbers for the M5100 or M6100 jockey wheels and they are different in appearance (spoke pattern). WP-Y3FY98010 is listed for M7100/M7120/M6100 and WP-Y3HL98010 is listed for M5100. Do you know if M8100 jockey wheels WP-Y3FW98010 is compatible with m5100? This is the only way to upgrade to ball bearing jockey wheels?

    I have the 5100. About 6 months ago the chain started jumping over the teeth (ghost shifting?) under load. Indexing was perfect. I couldn't figure it out so I replaced the 5100 with a new one, and the new one worked perfectly. Now 6 months later it has started doing it again on the smaller gears, getting worse daily. I replaced the chain and the cassette, but it's still doing it. I'm thinking this derailleur is crap. I didn't have this problem on any of my previous bikes.

      @@LoveMTB I'm looking at the Shimano manual to make sure I get the chain length and cable tension right... I'll check the hanger after that, but it seems more like a gradual problem that got worse over time. It took about 4 weeks of almost daily riding before it got so bad that I could not use the smallest 3 cogs. At first it only happened on the smallest one.

      @@LoveMTB it turns out it was probably my fault.. I cut another chain to length based on the Shimano manual and then set the high limit a bit past the smallest cog, then adjusted the cable tension perfectly over the same cog and now it's not ghost shifting anymore.
