Will I have any issues running the new Dura Ace 7900 10-speed chain on a SRAM Rival/Force 1070 OpenGlide 10 Speed Cassette?

Thanks.

Apparently no one has tried it yet. Shimano will say no as they claim the 7900 chain/cassette and chainrings are all specific to eachother. Maybe that's right. Maybe it isn't.

I've never run the DA chain on a SRAM cassette but, I've run Ultegra on one. In fact, I've run SRAM chains on Shimano cassettes and Shimano chains on SRAM cassettes in just about every configuration OTHER than the one you're asking about. Never had a problem with any combo FWIW.

Did you ever buy the SRAM cassette? I am about to order a DA 7900 gruppo but want the SRAM cassette because they dont eat the alloy freehubs on DT swiss 240 hubs...
