Shimano and Sram do not play particularity well together. I have made it work, and been content with it. But if you want it no-compromise "PERFECT" then don't try it.0

I already have the brakes and shifter.I will like you say make it work.I cant keep spending.

No, you can't.
However, a Problem Solvers MisMatch should let you do it.“Life has been unfaithful
And it all promised so so much”

Thank you.I can't warrant paying 40 quid for them.I will see how i get on with the build Saturday.0

Just a quick question im only using a rear derailler.Would i need a right or left problem solver?.I can buy them singular.0

Does the M365 lever use I-Spec? A quick Google search suggests it doesn't, which means a Problem Solver cannot be used. Where the lever clamps into the bar, is it hinged or is there a solid piece of metal which wraps around the bar?0

Its solid.Can i not open the fiiting a little.If not i will have to live with it.I would get used to it i guess.0

In that case, you can't mount them with a single clamp unfortunately. You'll have to stick with individual clamps for the brake lever and the shifter.0

Thank you.would Sram budget hydraulic brakes fit ok.0
