I am planning on doing a 9 day tour in the Rockies in late August. The gearing on my Surly Cross Check is not going to work on a loaded touring bike in the Rockies. I currently have a 50/34 compact with a 12-27 cassette – all Shimano. I got wind of SRAM’s new APEX line that provides a 11-32 cassette which would probably do the trick for me. So, my question is how much of my newish Surly Cross Check build will I have to change out to use this new cassette. I know I’ll need a new rear derailleur and chain. But what about the Shimano shifters, will I be able to use a SRAM rear derailleur with Shimano STI shifters or will I also need to buy SRAM shifters?
