    I have Deore 1 x 11 on two of my bikes these days. I confess to installing an XT shifter, probably more for looks than real performance improvement. It's all working great. I rotate my chains to even out the wear, which should be low anyway because the cassette is all-steel.
    The only issue I had was a bit of skipping in the middle sprocket. Turns out I put the chain and quicklink on backwards without noticing.
    Swapped it around and it's all good.
    Cheers

    I have M5100 on two bikes. Works great. Also, even tho the cassette is on the heavy side vs XT, I like that it is naturally colored and it looks like new even after many, many miles after proper cleaning, vs say a black anodised SX/NX.
    Yes, there are no-window shifter options.

  • @Asthbendriel
    @Asthbendriel 3 роки тому +3

    Totally agree, this is what I was commenting with a friend recently, and it is also very budget friendly for people who already had 1x11 before and want to get more range. I previously had an SLX M7000 1x11 with a 30T chainring at front and 11-46 on the back. When this got released got myself a new SLX 12 speed rear derailleur and 11 speed 11-51 Deore cassette. As far as I know the chain is the same in both old SLX and new Deore 11 speed, the SLX rear mech has technically the same range and "unsurprisingly" the SLX 11 speed shifter worked really well with the 11 speed Deore cassette.
    For around $100 I upgraded to have more range even comparable with some 12 speed drivetrains out there, I could move to 32T on the front and I am even considering moving to a 34T just like you say, because of that 51T sprocket, it is very friendly for climbing.

    • @Asthbendriel
      @Asthbendriel 3 роки тому +1

      @@thedownunderverse that's right :) indexing works perfectly. I am running an SLX 11 Speed drivetrain with a new Deore 11-51 11 speed cassette and an SLX 12 Speed rear mech, you can see how it works here ua-cam.com/video/dcXBDU72IPU/v-deo.html.
      The only "downside" you can't even see in the video with the bike mounted on a stand is some gear in the middle (I think it's the 5th or 6th) require slightly higher cadence in order to downshift properly indexed and that's probably because I am running a non boost crankset on a boost frame, because I had I full sus (non boost), had a crash and had to replace the frame, so I swapped my parts into the new frame and as a result, the chainline is slightly out of place. Even so it still works pretty much fine as you can see.

    While upgrading to deore 5100, keep in mind that 5100 derailleur is made for 11-51 cassette only, and will not work good with smaller cassettes. 5120 derailleur actually works with 11-51 cassette, and if you plan to use different cassettes on the same bike, 5120 is better choice. But again, it will not work great with cassettes smaller than 11-42.

  • @Bordpie
    @Bordpie 3 роки тому +3

    I have used the M5100 groupset (minus the cranks and chainring) which I got for £120 on Ebay for over a year. It has served me well but the cassette has developed a fault I noticed recently. Where the the largest 3 sprockets join to the spider, the rivets have come loose allowing the 3 large sprockets to slide around a bit, as if the rivets have lost their tension or deformed (most likely the former).
    I have done some steep climbs occasionally but the cassette hasn't seen a a large amount of use (still on my first chain) and I don't think I'm super hard on the bike, it's a standard bike not an E-bike. It's also on the heavy side which is to be expected from a budget steel cassette and I thought it would last a while but sadly not, maybe I got unlucky. The low gears make a noticable clicking noise and are probably robbing some power on the climbs so it is a good time to upgrade to a lighter cassette.
    The rest of the groupset hasn't caused any problems except when I bent the deraillieur, although that was more to do with the fact I was trying to put a chain back on in the middle of a dark raining field when I was drunk lol (my dad has gotten me into bad ways). It was easy enough to bend it back though.

    if only 5100 was available any where at MSRP..I want to upgrade my 2x10 to 1x but dont want to change my HG hub/relace etc, so my shimano options :
    -12 speed 6100/7100/8100 derailleur with chinese 11x50-52T cassette => seems like its working nowhere as good as full shimano drivertrain.
    -11 speed 5100 not available
    -1x11 from previous generation...I think I'm going this way with M8000 11-46T cassette/derailleur/shifter. im loosing about 10% of range but less expensive and better quality deore XT parts, double down shift and it will match nicely my deore XT rear bub and deore xt brake cakipers and levers with I-spec II. I just need to decide if I'm losing 10% range at top end, bottom end, or split, depending on chainring. still have some concern about the chainline on 1x but I'll take the single lever, cleaner cockpit, evenly spaced gears that are all usable, plus the fact 2x10 is basicly just like 11 speeds because usually you will use the front derailleur just once when going from lowest gear to the highest or the other way around

It changed my mind to stay with my 11sp, but upgrade just my cassette to the 11-51 and the required Deore RD-5100 SGS derailleur. I do have one question if you have time to answer. With my XT 11-46 set up, I was using a SRAM PCX1 chain with a SunRace cassette. Which chain do you recommend so I may get the best shifting possible or which did you use? Thank you again

    I got an after market 11/46 cassette for my 10 speed deor and I went with a 28 tooth chainring which I think gets me close to most 12 speed setups as far as the lowest gear capacity giving me the ability to ride much steeper climbs compared to my replaced 11/42 with a 30 tooth chainring . The total cost with cassette ,chain ring and new chain was $ 78 . The only problem is I do drop the chain back pedaling in the 2 biggest cogs but that only may come into play with a track type stand steep technical climb . Chain angle I guess plays a part with the smaller ring and the bigger cassette but other than that it has done well for 8 months on some hard terrain in the high desert and the bike is a hardtail which the name states its hard on equipment . Another thing is the chain does stay on much better than the 11/42 Shimano cassette were in very few cases I would drop a chain . I have also have seen some friends breaking chains on there 12 speeds pedaling at maybe higher tork and going OTB which I find concerning and wonder if this could be more of the problem for the 12 speeds and the cain they use .

    What is wrong with the Shadow Mount system. Why did Shimano go back to a more conventional mounting to the hanger? The Shadow Mount kept the derailleur father out of the way and I had many fewer bent derailleurs and derailleur hangers during crashes.

    I’m also a Cross Country racer, but this time I can’t relate with your opinion. I’m running on a 12 speed cassette 10-51 and in the front I have a 34 teeth and on the flat section I find my self in the 11’th speed (12 teeth). For the ones that are going to tell me to get a bigger chainring, well I can’t, my frame can’t take a 36 teeth chainring. So for me the 12 speed Shimano system is perfect.

      @@TitoJoebs I have a one piece cassette for garbaruk mounted on a sram xd freehub.
      I like more the sram xd freehub over the micro spline because when you are in the lower gears (10, 11, 12) the power is better distributed throw the cassette. Contrariwise when you have the last sprockets separated from the cassette and your sprinting you put lots of power on a smaller portion of the freehub and the wear is bigger. After to years I changed a freehub dew to wear. Thank you for your recommendation.

    What chain are you using? I did some research on complete mountain bikes specced with the M5100 cassette. They are paired with KMC chains. My M5100 cassette broke two chains, including a brand new SLX chain. I heard popping sounds before it snapped both chains. A former Shimano rep said that there was a bad batch of cassettes. I may have one of them. Before I ditch the M5100 cassette, I may try a KMC chain.

  • @MrGoodaches
    @MrGoodaches Рік тому +2

    Good advice here in this vid. Cyclists are frequently paying for more than they need. Even in cases where the price is not unfair relative to the costs of materials and technology it can be materials and technology that provide no real advantage over lower cost materials and tech. My current favorite example: spending hundreds of $ for over sized trolley wheels. The theory being the larger trolley wheel causes less chain friction when the chain links flex around. If a buyer truly believes that the larger trolley results in measurably less friction when the lightly tension chain articulates around then why would you be OK with your highly loaded chain wrapping around a 10 tooth cassette cog? In a lot of cases the chain isn’t even able to seat correctly on the 10 tooth cassette cog. Get a drive train with a cassette that starts at 11 or 12 teeth before throwing money at large trolley wheels.

    Just go for 8 speed, it has the sturdier wider chain compared to 9s-12s systems. If the gear selection isn't wide enough, you can update the cassette to something like 11-52T (likely need a rear derailleur extender too) and you will have crazy selection.

      Yes, I don't see any reason to have extra small 10T cog. Pushing 34/10 gear ratio is very hard on a flat terrain; maybe agonist riders can do. Having 34T chainring with 11-51 cassette is enough for any trail and climb.

      @HD46409 3 роки тому +2

      It's not really 24 gears because of overlap and you'll notice that the 2X systems max out at ~42 cassette. Otherwise you need to make the derailleur cage a whole lot longer to deal with the extra chain needed. If you want to go this way look at the SRAM eTap system that is programable so that you can exclude certain ratios. Generally this is probably a waste of time and money unless you are bikepacking with heavy loads or something (in which case get a triple)
