Opinions wanted switching to SRAM

Trying to think of ideas for some wide range gearing. Can I use 2 Rival AXS shifters with a GX AXS Eagle derailleur?

All eTap AXS components are compatible with one another, the compatibility chart is super easy. (Note that AXS implies you have a 12 speed drivetrain, you can’t match older 11-speed Red eTap shifters with 12-speed front and rear derailleurs.)

I went all Force, but changing on your current bike will allow you to customize what you want parts wise. Save $$ and get a Rival FD or RD, Force shifters (or Rival) and a Force crank to save weight. Or mullet group, etc.

I think the best bang for the buck is a Rival eTap AXS groupset with a Red crank.

I just started looking and I’m glad I’m not in a rush

Parts availability is a nightmare.
I had to wait 4.5 months until my bike was delivered and assembled. And I had to jump through some hoops (e. g. my bike shop organized a RTP frame at no extra cost and had it painted for a modest amount). And I forwent Red cranks, because those would have needed another 2+ months. I didn’t want to wait until June or July for a bike I ordered in January.
