need some advice : sram to shimano

[thedinks]

Hello,

First time posting in here, I'd like to change from sram to shimano, I have x7 10 speed rear derailer and x5 shifters, can I just swap the shifters to slx and derailers to slx? Will it all work together? Or do I need something else?

Thanks

Thanks for the reply.

Do I need a long derailer? Or a short? Will I have to do anything with my chain length?

Righto
