Shimano claims a drop in performance but we found performance to be more than satisfactory. Glad it was helpful.

I just got a new 12 speed Status. Always intended on switching to Shimano. Started with Shimano shifter and derailleur on Sram cassette (non-xd driver). It worked but not super smooth. Found out i could put a microspline driver on the roval wheel. A Shimano XT cassette and chain later and everything works flawlessly. I definitely reccomend full shimano drivetrain if you can get a driver that works with your hub. DTswiss is an option now...

This isn't a micro-spline hack. That term's exclusive to their driver - this is about pairing a good (shimano) derailleur/shifter with the XD driver/cassette. I'm actually installing this setup on my bike this afternoon...have been running the 11spd shimano derailleur with sram xd driver/cassette for years...and have no interest in buying a new set of wheels just to run shimano12spd. On the 11spd cassettes, the cog spacing was identical. I've heard the 12spd differs by a tiny bit, but not enough to not work. Still, I'm not expect the "shifting under power" the shimano combo will give, sacrificing that to keep my Onyx hub and Derby hoops, which have a lot of life left in them. :)

Exactly! The benefit of getting the Microspline driver is to get the benefit of running the 12spd Shimano cassette/chain (XTR level shifting), and better contact points between driver and cassette. This mod does none of that, but yeah, I just grafted my SLX 12spd mech to my Eagle setup, and it shifts a bit better than the full NX setup that I'm coming from.

This setup works, but Shimano's technology seems to be primarily in the cassette. I would love to hear how the opposite setup works (Shimano Cassette with Sram derailleur) My guess is it would be mind-blowing.

I’ve been buying Shimano Deore M7100 groupsets lately as my go too for affordable/dependable/ attractive choice for bike builds. I’ve used Jason’s same setup and it works fine without issues, “BUT”, I’ve also used SunRace’s Shimano specific 11-51t cassettes for HG freehubs that match the same up and down ramps that Shimano designed. These work in conjunction with the new design of the Shimano 12 speed chain and I could definitely feel an improvement. I have not as of yet used an actual Micro Spline cassette yet. There are affordable Shimano wheels with them that I’m considering

It's funny last season at the Cap Forest Enduro I spotted a few bikes tucked away behind the Shimano truck with this same set up, seems getting the microspline out was tougher than planned. Also cant wait to get back to Ashland in April!

I’m trying to look for where he used a micro spline hubs with SRAM cassette cuz i know there’s no micro spline eagle cassette. That’s what it says on the title. Would’ve been perfect for my trouble. I have an SLX micro spline and wanted to run at least SRAM NX but can’t because of the micro spline, unless I change hubs, maybe? But would cost more money.

Which chain did you used? Shimano, SRAM or something else?

In this case, I ran my personal wheels with the stock drive train on a Norco Demo bike equipped with a full XT 12-speed drivetrain including the chain.

Good day sir would you think a if I do vice versa , like shimano microspline cassette will work on a sram nx 12 speed rd and shifter??

the spacing is very close so it should work. Obviously, both brands recommend running their entire system for the best performance.
