105 derailleur w/ x9 shifter

[phil p.]

Just a quick question. Is it possible to run a shimano 105 derailleur with a SRAM x9 shifter? Thanks!

Nope....! ..

what would be good trigger shifter that would be compatible with it? anything shimano I'm guessing?

 

[fatass]

Yeah, or sram attack (not sure if they will do simano road mechs though).

You could use a sram 'attack' shifter which allows you to use shimano derailers, i use an attack shifter with a 105 derailer on my downhill bike and it's a good setup
