Di2 Compatibility - mix Ultegra, DURA-ACE, XTR, XT and GRX components
Did you know that you can mix Di2 components from different series and categories? Mixing derailleurs is not recommended, but anything else is fair game!
The SW-M9050-R (right) and SW-M9050-L shifters weigh about 66g each - that is 30g lighter than the cheaper XT shifters. Most setups nowadays will only make use of a right shifter - 1x setups have grown in popularity rendering the left shifter obsolete.
You can use these shifters with any Di2 bike - even road or gravel bikes.
