9 Reasons Why The New SRAM Eagle Transmission Is A Paradigm Shift | SRAM XX Long-Term Review

[@deverenfogle3201]

I rode my “old” AXS yesterday and shifted under load numerous times. This product release, is so funny, reviewers are pretending the old Axs can barely shift at all. Sure there may be improvements, but Axs is still spectacular in all conditions.

[@xovimac]

I totally agreed, overwhelm by all of this reviews, I rode mi bike today and was wondering what they mean my axs shift well underload, is not comparable to shimano but it does the job.

[@LuLeBe]

Yeah my SLX drivetrain works flawlessly and I don't get how people suddenly say it's bad. Especially the "shifting under load" thing. Everybody was like "wow Shimano hyperglide+ so great to shift under load" and suddenly they're pretending it can't even shift on a bike stand xD

[@KotakMeisterHamzah]

I'm genuinely looking forward to getting this. I'll be saving up...yes it's pricey, but this sport never was cheap to begin with. From all the reviews and tests done by reviewers; the absence of all the adjustment screws, the robustness of the derailleur, the crisp shifting and shifting under full load, to me it's worth the price... you're paying for peace of mind while out on the trails. I think SRAM has really raised the bar.

[@manabiker]

I've gotten Sram XO1 on all my new bikes since 2011, they have always shifted under load, lighter, easy enough to adjust, simpler is better for me, I'll keep my XO1 stuff on my sub 22 pound Epic EVO, weight is something that matters when your climbing up hill after hill in your late 70's, you can have all the Green Tricknology..

[@johndef5075]

Gripshift would be great for electronic shifting. Slight twist forward or back to shift.

[@cliffbeee]

Why is everyone spamming this … Its too expensive for something that is meant for wear en tear

[@reineherrera8897]

…if there is a deficiency in the facing of the inner portion of the frame dropout where it interfaces with the cassette and integrated hanger, there will be alignment issues leading to poor shifting…at least with a traditional hanger you can adjust it.

[@FlowMountainBikeYouTube]

You're absolutely right - the frame has to be manufactured to the tolerances required of the UDH design. Just like post mount brake tabs, pivot bearings, a BB shell or a head tube, if the frame has been built with poor tolerances, then there will be issues. [Wil]

[@reineherrera8897]

Yes, which is more common than one might think. I worked at an LBS as a service manager and technician during the height of the pandemic for two years building entry to elite level bikes. Gently hand-filing post mounts to correct brake rub is something I could do without for a while.

[@paulhusby8344]

such great teaching!

[@fetB]

5:25 wait how is that different to a cable actuated derailleur? If a conventional deraileur breaks here, its because the metal bends, which is why the hanger was there in the first place. If the same situation happens, this deraileur has to take the impact which requires you to make it stronger/heavier

[@mircea5013]

Bullshit of course. A lot of bullshit.

[@HelloThere-mm2vu]

One thing I have noticed is that after extended time racing on the XXSL cassette, the teeth that match up with the shifting ramps are super worn down. Only been on it for 6 months but it is noticeably destroyed. Maybe it is the aluminum instead of steel plate?

[@wanderingjuniper]

So the derailleur is ok after hits but how is your frame now it's taking the force instead of the hanger ?

[@Seebema]

Everyone is talking about the durability of the derailleur but how does the cassette last

[@reidconti]

Love my XX AXS transmission but the power meter seems unreliable as hell. I had some suspicious readings on a ride a month or two ago, but today had to re-zero it at least 4 times within 20 minutes. It gets out of spec really quickly. Just did the re-calibration process designed for a new bike installation and hoping it helps, but not holding my breath. 40Nm+ torque offset is concerning to say the least.

[@radidoc4832]

If I am Shimano, i am coming out with new mechanical direct mount derailleurs. I like the idea of direct mount but without the battery.

[@mircea5013]

Legacy tech: no derailleur hanger, horrible design, risk of bending the frame, destroying the derailleur Current tech: we added a derailleur hanger, frame is safe, derailleur protected, brilliant idea New tech: we removed the derailleur hanger, direct mount for derailleur, innovative design.

It'll most likely be on just higher tier bike packages until they introduce a GX version. Until then the UDH absolutely will be on more and more bikes going forward since it's an open standard (very shrewd SRAM) and as long as you've got that you can buy the system later.

[@r11449]

What happens with these "transmissions" if the battery dies while one is out on the trail? Can one carry a spare battery, and is the bike rideable when the battery is dead?

[@FlowMountainBikeYouTube]

Carrying a spare AXS battery is a good idea if you're heading away for a week of riding and will be doing longer days out. They're lightweight and small, so it's an easy thing to put in with all your riding kit. We've never personally run out of juice, but then we charge the battery every 3-4 weeks when we're cleaning/servicing the bike. Because the Reverb AXS dropper uses the same battery, it's worth noting that you can swap batteries on the side of the trail if one of them runs out. Hope that helps! [Wil]

[@lachcurtis5503]

If you remove the rear wheel, is the derailleur at risk of popping off without the axle to hold it in place?

[@FlowMountainBikeYouTube]

Not at all - the derailleur will stay fixed to the dropout. [Wil]

[@michaelmicallef668]

The UDH doubled as a captive nut. But now the derailleur is playing that role of hanger and captive nut. The axle comes through the non drive side and bolts into the captive nut.

[@Beginners-Journey]

I was told the new Sram GX Transmission can not be fit on my Dengfu E10 V2 Ebike. But it seems like it should work on any EMTB or MTB? But i am not a mechanic.

[@robertmcfadyen9156]

Chordal resonance in the two smallest cogs of the rear cassette is ",STILL" a problem under load .

[@hdoan7167]

I wouldn’t worry too much about no hanger there to protect your frame, the derailleur will be more expensive than most frames 😂 but seriously looks great, only downside looks to be cost (any idea on how much AUD?), small weight penalty, and only compatible with UDH frames, so for many this means you need to upgrade the frame not just the drivetrain.

[@marauder7412]

$2600 for the XO

[@XCRiders]

glowing review what if you crash

[@aleszverca]

The system seems impressive although the weakest point in the system will always break first. Before the weakest point was the derailleur hanger that cost change to replace. Now to me it seems like the weakest point of the system would be the pulleys cage, I wonder if the cost of the cage is lower/same/higher than the trusty hanger... Probably higher...it's the how to pull money from a product that's already been sold...time will tell✌

[@LuLeBe]

Yeah standard recipe. Make people want something, and slip in things that aren't immediately obvious but make them more money in the long run.

[@aleszverca]

@LuLeBe Yep, most people will buy anything sugar-coated...one other issue I see with it is that a rider can cary a spare hanger in the kit, but cannot a pulley cage. It's been a while and I was right, have noticed reports of ripped of pulley cages.

[@daddy-w6o5]

Tbh I still like the good old fashioned derailleurs where they've to mounted on hangers. I like adjusting the L screws now and then...it's like a bond between you and your bike and by spending time with it like while adjusting your L screws, the bond gets stronger...

[@LuLeBe]

Also if you break something it'll be a cheap hanger and not a $300 derailleur.

[@SolarizeYourLife]

I want this transmission on a recumbent trike but i don't know which trike has an UDH....since they never mentioned it in the description...

[@FlowMountainBikeYouTube]

You could use your current 5Dev cranks, but you would need to ensure you had a 'T-Type' compatible chainring in the correct offset. This is because the new Flattop chain uses a 'T-Type' profile that is specific to the new T-Type cassette and chainring. [Wil]

Best review on KZbin! ❤ Thank you, guys! I'm left with two more questions: 1. Did you use the SRAM 104 BCD Chainring on the Levo? So chain line is fine with that? 2. According to some listings X0 derailleur should have the Magic Wheel as well. Can you confirm that? Thanks!

[@FlowMountainBikeYouTube]

Yep, it's a SRAM T-Type 104 BCD chainring that Mick fitted to his Levo. I'm not 100% sure on the chainline but I'll check in with him to find out. I don't have the X0 derailleur to hand, but according to SRAM's specs it's only the XX and XX SL derailleurs that feature the Magic Wheel. I'd be surprised if you couldn't purchase those jockey wheels separately and upgrade the X0 mech with them though. [WIl]

[@MrDanjacs]

I'm actually impressed, probably not going to like the price though.

[@Maccaboy1984]

I have a non-udh frame, interested to know which parts of the new system could be used (in addition to the new control pods) if any?

[@FlowMountainBikeYouTube]

Unfortunately not a lot. The new Controller Pods are backwards compatible, but otherwise all the moving gear stuff (derailleur, cassette, chain & chainring) isn't. For example, the new cassette sits 2.5mm outboard compared to a regular Eagle 12-speed cassette, so it may actually present physical clearance issues with some non-UDH dropouts. [Wil]

[@setransou]

Pretty cool that sram can finally shift under load. Although shimano has had this for all eternity. With that price, the hype train will not be getting my $$$. I will wait 2 years for guiney pigs to sort out everything.

[@razazulai]

Will it fit every frame?

[@FlowMountainBikeYouTube]

Only if it has a UDH, which seems to be most new mountain bikes these days. We've even started seeing some new gravel bikes using the UDH standard, which might indicate where SRAM is taking the direct-mount derailleur in the future. [Wil]

[@OscarHernandez-xx2je]

Is this compatible with superboost frames?

[@FlowMountainBikeYouTube]

Yes - SRAM is offering both 0mm and 3mm offset T-Type chainrings. If you had a wider SB crankset, I *think* you would need the 0mm offset option, though I'm not 100% sure on that. For reference, here's a Pivot Switchblade fitted with the new X0 groupset; instagram.com/p/CqDiOunvo4F/ [Wil]

We're curious about that too! Many of the same technologies could be translated over to a mechanical system, and it sure would be interesting to see what a cable-operated direct mount mech would look like. Surely it would be smaller and lighter?

[@marauder7412]

@@FlowMountainBikeKZbin it would be a shame if there were no cable operated counterparts, as I'm sure a lot of riders are not interested in electronics. Also I don't quite understand why there needs to be a new crankset. Maybe is we are lucky, they would release a cable operated GX with new cassette/chain and chainring.. Fingers crossed.

[@laurikuris7721]

does it work with 52mm chainline?

[@FlowMountainBikeYouTube]

Good question! All the new SRAM transmissions are optimised around a 55mm chainline, so all of the new cranksets and chainrings sit at 55mm, and the cassette is spaced out 2.5mm wider to match. All of those components will fit to an existing frame, whether it's been built around a 52mm or 55mm chainline. I guess your question might be around whether you can use your existing crankset with a 52mm chainline and the new SRAM transmission? Firstly, the T-Type profile of the Flattop chain requires a specific T-Type compatible chainring. SRAM is offering aftermarket chainrinngs that would allow you to do that, and I'm assuming there will be +3mm offset options that will allow you to use your existing 52mm crankset but match up the chainline for the new transmission. I'll double check that one for you! [Wil]

No sponsored content here folks! I can't speak for any of the other reviews online, but SRAM hasn't paid us to produce this video. I wouldn't be working for Flow if we were forced to churn out sponsored reviews. We have a lot of pride in our jobs, and I hope that dedication and experience comes across in our review content. Full disclaimer - SRAM sent us two of its new groupsets last year, so we didn't pay for them. That's the case with most of the bikes and gear that we review here at Flow. We've been testing these groupsets over the past six months, and this is our long-term review that draws from that experience. We certainly shared your scepticism regarding the lack of a derailleur hanger when we first starting riding the new transmission last year, but despite all the riding we've done, we're still yet to encounter a problem. The main downside with the new groupsets is cost - some of the components are very expensive, particularly when compared to say, a Shimano XT drivetrain. In terms of performance and durability however, we're yet to encounter any major flaws. It is properly impressive. Hope that helps explain, but by all means give us a hoy if you've got any questions!
