Any issue with SRAM cassette and Shimano chain?
This might be a dumb question, but is there any compatibility problem with running an 11-26 SRAM Force cassette and a Shimano Dura-Ace chain? Both 10-speed. Thanks.

I am running that exact combo myself with a compact FSA crank, and it works fine. I have other sets of wheels with Ultegra 10s 12-25, and 11-23, and everthing shifts fine with no adjustments

I ran a 11-26 on my 10sp FSA compact with an ultegra chain and it seemed noisier (or a different sound/pitch) than the 12-25 ultegra cassette I replaced. The chain wasn't new, 500 miles, so it may have contributed to the noise. I ended up going with a 12-27 and new chain 500 miles later and and I stopped noticing the chain noise.
