is it possible to run an ultegra R8000 chainset with a sram red axs front derailleur? [image]

I have currently running Force AXS with Ultegra rings and 12s 105 cassette with a YBN chain. Working fine. I just don’t think you’ll be able to use the AXS chain

You can use the Red AXS FD with virtually any crankset if not using the FLATTOP chain. But if you are using the FD it’s an easy guess that you’re also using the RD and chain, at that point you may run into compatibility issues with the Ultegra chainrings, though it could work but trying it is the o…

Just keep in mind that the RD lower pulley wheel is narrow/wide when you install the chain.

Has anyone tried this yet? I keep seeing deals for either SRAM Force or Red shifters + RD & FD but I would want to keep my Shimano chairning since it has my P2M power meter that is only compatible with 4 bolt Shimano cranks.

FYI, i now have a bike with sram red axs shifters and derailleurs on 12 speed. shimano rim brakes, kmc chain with shimano cassette and front chainset. it works fine. is it optimum? no idea, i got 50% off on the sram parts, so took a chance.

Power2max make spiders compatible with mutliple different 110 4 bolt spacings, the OP has a Shimano bolt spacing one, and that ring needs the rotor bolt spacing. @cagiva_wmx125 interesting, hard to say what’s acceptable in terms of noise and shifting perfection, but that’s an appealing option if it…

yes. i’m running a 52/36 chain rings. front shift is perfect with the sram.
