I deleted my previous post and started over. I guess I was tired or just goofed up, but u/Cranks_and_Crowns_63 pointed me in the right direction. I just couldn’t get the drivetrain to work yesterday. I reassembled everything and tightened down the b-limit screw to take up the slack in the 10t cog. Everything works as it should. I took in on a local 20% grassy hill and boy is the new gearing awesome.
The drive train is Force AXS 36t max, Garbaruk cage/pulleys, Ztto 10/52t cassette, 36t Alugear 6mm ring, 12s eagle chain. Just have to replace a silver quick link with a rainbow one and my ocd self will be happy 🤣
Pics are of the chain in the biggest and smallest cogs.

Looks pretty stretched ha. But yeah even mechanical rival/force with the stock cage can do it. I rode 51t with stock rival 1x cage for at least a year with no problems
Wolftooth makes a RoadLink for that situation
Why not just use a gx/x01/xx1 cage? Looks clean though assuming it all rides great!
Is there any cage solution for a Force AXS XPLR mech to upgrade to 10-52? Or is the only solution to buy a new mech and cassette plus non-flattop chain?
🫣 The double quick links right next to each other.
Why didn’t you just switch to an Eagle Transmission derailleur instead of going through all this Jerry riggin’?
