Shimano road 11s pulls 2.7mm, so I guess I could put a GRX mech on there and that would work in friction mode?! It’s the clutch I’m after more than anything. For some reason it just sounds like a bad idea.
No it wouldn’t would it, you need 27mm total pull from the shifter to do that and 8x2.8 is less than that

I was wondering if I could still use them in friction mode... looked at the dynasys shifter pull and it’s something like 3.4mm per gear whereas the old 8sp shimano mtb shifters pull 2.8mm per gear... so not gonna happen unfortunately. Sorry @Skülly but not ready to part with them yet. There are a couple of reasonably priced sets on eBay atm though!

Bit of a makeover coming for my Trek 950. Here it is currently, sorry for NDS shot. Gonna lose the pewter coloured stem and seat post cos I’ve never been sure on them. New 11-42 1x drivetrain too, with a clutch mech and narrow wide retainer ring.
I’ll be really sad to lose the XT thumbies though as they feel so satisfying. By far my favourite shifter.
