11 speed SRAM Force Shifter
11 speed Shimano Road Cassette
10 speed SRAM X9 mountain bike derailleur

What was the reasoning behind using an X9 here? To get the type II clutch?

Getting something cheap to run cassette going to 32 or 34 teeth. Road models like 11sp wifle or long cage ultegra are expensive. And if I want to run 40 teeth cassette with 1x crankset later...

Ah I see, just a way of getting the WiFli set up with a long cage and 32 cassette or something?

Max cog on the X9 is 36 I think, could be wrong. Not sure if it would work with a 40, but frame design might be the final arbiter of that.
