Shimano GRX crank with 105 stages?

Anyone know if I can run a 105 stages with their gravel crank? I heard the grx have wider Q factor so wasn’t sure or would their mtb stages be better with it ?

Thanks

The arm will fit on the crank, but the sensor pod may or may not clear your chainstays. Will vary greatly from bike to bike.

Yep. But as above, it’s about frame clearance.

I just tried this. It didn’t work on my bike. I checked with competitive cyclist first. They said it would work, but literally just slight rub. So, they totally refunded me and I bought the 4iiii, since they were in stock but the color scheme is a little off grx 800 vs grx 600.

Just to echo everyone else: it will work if your frame allows. I have a an Ultegra Stages on a GRX800 1x crank on my Norco Threshold. It works but the clearence is substantially tighter than it was previously.
