Now I have LT, SL-V5010-10, 10s + LT, RD-V5010-LX, 10s and i was wondering if I can keep the shifter and only change the derailleur from ltwoo to shimano

I found the attached schem for Shimano, is there something similar for other brands or a table that collects all major brands products?

I’m not aware of any universal compatibility chart maintained across multiple brands.

For this case however, from what I understand Ltwoo uses the same (or very similar) pull ratio to Shimano 2:1 (actually about 1.7:1). This is the ratio used for Shimano’s road groups up to 10 speed and their mountain groups up to 9-speed.

Unfortunately, if you’re looking for a modern mountain derailleur with large capacity and clutch, it doesn’t leave you with many good options.

Thanks, I found something about various pull ratios.

I might keep ltwoo and try the elite one maybe
