I'm thinking of attempting a hacked together 12 Speed mechanical groupset on my Shiv. I got ahold of a bar-end shifter that will work with SRAM Eagle rear derailleurs and I plan on using a Rotor 12 speed cassette (which fits on HG free hubs and has identical spacing to SRAM). I would like to use something like an 11-36 cassette but would be willing to go up to an 11-40. My question is, will the geometry of the rear derailleur work with the smaller cassette (it's designed around a 10-50).
Thanks.
Thanks.
