• So I could avoid needing a Wolftooth if I had a medium cage RD rather than my short cage (probably). I think Wolftooth or longer B-screw + SRAM cassette is cheapest option for me.

    But it also looks like I could run the XTR 11-40 cassette on my current setup if I fitted a Wolftooth.

    Up to 36t you will be fine, going by my experience. Anything above yeah you'd need it.

    The only reason I am getting rid of the mech is I want a clutched one so there is no chainslap/drop in 1x.

  • I could just buy and fit the longer cage though, I don't need whole RD.
    How much is your long cage RD?

    I think Wolftooth + short cage is a sexier look :)
