Maybe I am just a spud who has no feeling but my XT 11sp medium cage runs perfectly well on an 11-46.

If you ever go 12 speed you will find chain length makes a huge difference. I like 12 speed and love how you can change underload and not feel guilty. I still think the 11 speed 11-40 Xtr takes the cake for light and crisp though
I am running 9-46 with mid cage and happy. I just find it a little tighter in the shift and feels a bit tighter shifting into granny.

Felix's new bike runs the 10-46 without an extender, and very acceptable B screw and tension.
Other bikes, not so.
Definitely a few variables

Wolftooth Goat-10 worked on my non-clutched XT Shadow rear mech, although my chain wasn't long enough to get me in the biggest cog
I'll likely be selling them both lightly used in the next month or so if you're keen

So frame style can also play a part in all this, awesome. What setup have you got on a V2 Banshee? I might get similar results from something of very close geometry.

Seems to purely based on one mans experience and 4 different frames. Maybe later models are more designed for bigger cassettes and the hanger is made accordingly.
Spitty hasn’t had a 46 on it, sorry, only a 42.
Attaching pics for reference if sunrace v goat 11. Sunrace is shorter and sits more vertical. It also sits recessed in hanger, unlike the goat that moves it outbound.
Happy to post you one of each to test if you wanted.

Can you let me know please? I'll be honest and say it's a means to sell a $500 mountain bike so I'm on a strict budget and I don't want to take the piss by lowballing.Wolftooth Goat-10 worked on my non-clutched XT Shadow rear mech, although my chain wasn't long enough to get me in the biggest cog

I'll drop you a line once I've flogged them off the bike and see what nick they're in, and what I paid for them. You can have first dibs.

How's your chain length? Too short could be buggering things.

I ran one of these for a year on my gravel bike, allowed me to run a road Shimano 105 11spd derailleur with a 11-42 cassette.
Reckon I may still have a couple of them somewhere.

This is a SunRace one, so pretty decent.

Thanks for the offer but I haven’t even started amassing parts yet and $3 from Ali won’t break the bank if I need one.

Current-series R7000 105 and R8000 Ultegra (and GRX derivatives) in long form will fit up to 42T without goats, and have enough play for a narrowish-range 2x ringset.I ran one of these for a year on my gravel bike, allowed me to run a road Shimano 105 11spd derailleur with a 11-42 cassette.
