IMO the better play is just buying oversized ceramic jockey wheels. Much cheaper with basically the same benefits and stupid easy to install. I did BBInfinite oversized jockey wheels for SRAM at $130 shipped with a $20 coupon. No need for a new chain since it works as long as your chain was properly sized from the start
I put those BBInfiniti jockey wheels on a 11-speed bike that is now gone. I agree, much cheaper and no downsides. May end up doing the same one day.
