Hi all! Can anyone please tell me if you can replace the lower jockey wheel on an 11speed sram X01 rear mech from a 12 to a 13t jockey wheel?
The reason I ask is I can't find a source for carbon 12t jockeys anywhere.
Thanks!

You can - I replaced only the lower one and it worked ok.
It's not the best solution as the chain is hanging lower than it should (also the upper pulley is closer to the sprockets), but it's possible to do it.
