I have a set of Santa Cruz Reserve wheels with a Shimano hub. I am looking to get a new bike with XO1 AXS on it (including a set of wheels with XD driver in the rear). The idea would be to be able to switch out wheelsets to change from XC to more aggressive tires. I hear AXS works with Shimano cassettes but I wonder how difficult it is to switch out the rear tire that has the factory-fitted Eagle cassette to the SC Reserve tire with an XT or XTR cassette (12-spd) without having to mess with b screws and adjustment gizmos that apparently are required for smooth shifting with SRAM. Also, what happens if my SRAM and Shimano cassettes have different ranges?
I have always had Shimano drivertrains which have been quite reliable and did not require a lot of tweaking. I currently switch out the rear tire in 30 seconds with all Shimano stuff.
How deep does the rabbit hole go if I get the AXS?
Thanks
