Hi Everyone
I'm getting close to finishing my new bike build.
I have xtr m980 pedals and Hope x2 brakes on the way.
I just need a cassette and chain. I have a full XX drivetrain so far. The XX cassette seems to be priced ridiculously for a disposable item. I was waiting for the XO cassette but they seem to be unavailable and aren't that much cheaper.
Could I use a Shimano 10 speed cassette (say, XTR)? Is it the same spacing?
Would I need to use the new Shimano xtr chain?
Thanks
It's getting hard now that I'm so close. But looking outside at the Melbourne weather makes the pain go away somewhat.
Here's the build so far
And here is the Vintage, but still used and reliable, MTB it joins:
