the 44T cog is made from ARI BIKE and it is made as spare for a stock 42T Sram XX cog.

in this case, it's only placed at the end of the XD body.

it comes with 2 spacers, not used in this case

the XX1 cassette is placed in the XD body, screwed a bit less as usual.

on a 135mm hub this tuning won't fit. it requires a 142mm hub.

you need to remove H and L limit screws from RD.

you need to remove stop on the X01 shifter.

Nice job. :)

But question is, if is realy necessery for 12 speed cassette?!

It's much heavy,and on this big sprocket the chain will have a very short life.
