1x12 systems killer! Deore 1x11 drivetrain with 11-51T cassette. Cheap, compatible, great shifting!

I do use XTR, XT and SLX groupsets, but the 1x11 does make 95% of what the 1x12 drivetrain can. Just see...

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

[@nameresu]

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.

[@MrGoodaches]

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.

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.

[@thedownunderverse]

Wait, you're saying the SLX 12 speed rear derailleur works with 11 speed shifter?

[@Asthbendriel]

@@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 kzbin.info/www/bejne/mpS7c3eLbJd8hrc. 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.

Thank you. Just got a 11 speed.

[@Bordpie]

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.

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

Bought the 11 spd 51t bec. No reason to go micro spline when their is no difference

[@jasonbidwell]

3x9 works for me

Is what I used to think, until a get rid of the front derailleur...it's a charm!! light, simple easy!

I just bought 11 speed Deore yesterday. nice video!!!!

[@DL.Traveler.2016]

I am running my m6100 in 1-by 11 speed 11-46T config without any problems. it came from another bike running 2-by 11-42T with problems hence moved it to another bike in 1-by config.

Can I upgrade my shimano xt m8000 to microspline 12 speed

[@FernandoHaddadMinistro]

@@marioramljak94 I thing you need to change all in the back, and the gear shifter. It's not worth. If you need more speed, use a 34 or 36 on the front

There needs to be a 10-51 . . . . jus'sayin'. And while you're there be certain the smallest ones are a single tooth's difference.

If i plan to replace my group set to 1x11s m5100.... Chainring 32T, 11-51t cassette & sgs rd... Whats chain i should using on it... 116L or 126L... Thanks😉

[@paulmaul]

Wrap the new chain around your largest cog in the rear and around your chain ring- touch the two ends of the new chain together and add 3 links to that length. That is the most common and effective way to measure your chain. It should work out for you

[@JamesDownes]

One BIG problem. No derailleur lock open for wheel removal ETC

[@nicolasbozzo2364]

Wheels should be kept on the bike😅

[@Jay_radd]

hahaha yep, I have this groupset on my bike and taking off the rear wheel is much harder than it needs to be

[@deyoviC]

Can someone help me identify the issue as to why do I hear like some rattling noise whenever I pedal with my Cube EXC Nature 2023 which comes with Shimano SL-M6000? It sounds like it's from the chain. The bike is brand new and I have no idea if the sound is normal or not this is my first bike after 15 years.

[@black2haw]

You should adjust B screw.

[@carlt9265]

1x11 best thing i ever did should have been that from day 1 not all these gears at the front

[@nicolasbozzo2364]

I just use an 11-42 with a 30t chainring when out of shape and with a 32 when on good shape. Living in Chile (hills everywhere) i just think that this super wide range cassettes are solely marketing. Pro’s dont like the big gear steps. Begginers will never use the 10t

Does the Shimano XT rear derailleur (RD-M8000) work with the 11-51 11speed cassette?

[@soliranje]

I made conversion from 2x11 to 1x11 recently. I kept my M8000 RD SGS and shifter, bought new chain HG601, cassette 11-51T and installed 32T xt m8000 narrow/wide chainring. Everything works fine, I shift while I ride uphill 10-20% of gradient without any problems, even if many youtubers said that combination will never work. THey were wrong, and I am happy with that

[@kamalgurung4358]

in 1 x 11 speed formation front chaniring size ? which size is better 32 teeth or 34 ......or more bigger

[@BIIIKES]

that's your personal preference. More teeth up front = the faster you can pedal on flats and downhill. The less teeth up front creates an easier climbing ratio.

[@lucywucyyy]

depends on your wheel size and crank length im currently riding a 32t oval with 175mm cranks and 29x2.1 tyres and find it to be just barely right for flat tarmac but with a slight tailwind or downhill i spin out immediately if youre on smaller wheels id go for the 34 if you have shorter or the same length cranks id go for the 32

[@adammacer]

@@lucywucyyy I've just fitted this group and I went 34t - that gives me a 19.5 GI bottom gear and 89 GI top = adequate for climbing and fast enough for a fully loaded bikepacking trip

[@rogercanisius8497]

Can i use it on a non-boost wheel?

[@BlueKnows]

Yes you can. If your bike also has a square tapered bb I'd recommend going for the bb52 68-73mm bottom bracket. This will let you use the supplied spacers to tinker with the chain line a little. I just installed this groupset last night, waiting for the chain arriving today like a kid at Xmas. If I run into any issues I'll pop back with an edit after a test ride over the weekend but all the research I've done indicates it should work fine 🤞

[@gorjnjch]

I want to ask how this 1x11 transmission behaves when driving on a normal road? I have never used this option before. I have a Nishiki Bigfoot K29 bike, with a Shimano Deore/Altus system, 27. The number of sprockets of the system is 3, the number of teeth is 44-32-22. Cassette: Shimano HG-20, 11-34T, 9 stars. It's hard for me to imagine how the bike will behave when moving at a normal speed of 20 - 25 km per hour.

[@zdravo4]

Believe me 1x drivetrains are very good. I converted mine 3x10 to 1x10 and I am very happy with the result. I have 32t on the crank and 11-46 on casette. I can climb very steep uphils and on the flat I can go at decent speed. And few more things, the bike is lighter and the system is simplier, you have just right shifter and hit it!

[@fackerhidonbush8420]

I comute on my 10-51t 12 speed with 32t in front with no problem. I ride the 3rd sproket

Hi! Thank you so much for your informative video. I want to ask if it’s possible to pair 11x51 with 2x compact crankset. And what 2x cheap or budget 30x46 crankset would you advise. Thanks in advance

[@alinburtoi7028]

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]

why not change the last gear from 10T to 9T. You can buy it individually. Check eBay.

[@alinburtoi7028]

@@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.

[@natanaellorenzi5]

Sorry, but 11s cassette is more expensive than 12s in Brazil and Aliexpress...
