Introducing SRAM Eagle 1x.

The SRAM team certainly have been busy over the winter!

From the launch of their base mountain bike NX groupset, to their revamped Rockshox Reverb, they now bring you the new 12-speed XX1 and XO1 kit.

Did you find yourself rolling your eyes when Boost hubs and bikes were released? Us too. Too many ‘standards’ is never solved by the creation of another, but that is the industry we are part of. There was method in the madness though. Remove the spacer that no doubt came with your 11-speed cassette on your Boost hub and you will find exactly the right amount of room for a 12th cassette cog.

So, with that in mind, SRAM have launched their top-of-the-line XX1 and XO1 drivetrain in 12-speed ‘Eagle’.

On top of launching a 12-speed MTB group, and another super light carbon MTB crank, there is that cassette… 10-50t. What ever happened to making your legs stronger and your bike lighter? Will you ever find a situation where a 50t cassette is just right…?
