If you wish to return your bike to us please keep it in the box it arrived in and call us on 01772 644340 and we will arrange a collection. GX Eagle is a step above NX but needs an SRAM specific XD driver for the rear hub (Image credit: SRAM) SRAM GX And now a new carbon-fibre GX crankset is also available with both the carbon and unchanged alloy versions getting new anodised chainrings Russell Burton / Immediate Media Ultra-smooth chain inner-plates are completely devoid of square edges, resulting in a chain that engages the cassette and chainring with far less friction, for quieter performance and better wear life. The design allows a narrower overall profile that can withstand greater angles, and also allows for a flatter outer-plate, which means more consistent chain riveting and enhanced overall strength. As laid out above, the most obvious difference is the cassette and by extension the derailleur that goes with it. Even that isn't as straightforward as it would seem though. All the Eagle drivetrains are cross-compatible. That means if you wanted to spec the GX Eagle but had wheels that couldn't upgrade to the XD freehub you could do it by just using the NX cassette. Alternatively, if you wanted more range all you need to grab is the GX cassette and derailleur.And now a new carbon-fibre GX crankset is also available with both the carbon and unchanged alloy versions getting new anodised chainrings. 2021 SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed groupset details Only Eagle is a complete system-engineered drivetrain designed, tested and proven to deliver the lightest, highest-performing, most durable system for all riders on any trail. Eagle technology provides an expanded, optimum, gear range making you fast on the flats, giving you control on the climbs and unleashing your speed on the descents. Compatible with all levels of Eagle drivetrain systems. KMC designs are solid, but they're always 2nd fiddle to the chains natively designed to be optimized within their "ecosystem" (e.g. SRAM Eagle chain with SRAM Eagle drivetrain).

Just like with NX, you've got options besides the mechanical GX Eagle at the same level of componentry. What's different is that now there are quite a few more options. Instead of either Eagle or not, meaning 1x11 or 1x12, you get options for GX Eagle, GX, GX DH and GX AXS. The latest GX incarnation, Eagle Transmission, is not compatible with the older GX systems though. Other updates to the 2021 SRAM GX Eagle drivetrain beyond the redesigned cassette include a derailleur with revised pulley wheel offsets, a shorter cage and larger parallelogram section with new springs and pivot hardware.The magic of it is a rear cassette with a roughly 450 percent range. Not quite as much as a 2x11 mountain bike drivetrain but it's a lot lighter in weight with less complexity. Running a single ring at the front also allows a narrow-wide style chainring to be used, by using alternating sized teeth the narrow-wide style ring helps hold the chain in place without the need of a chain guide. Chain reaction Cycles and CRC are trading names of Wiggle Ltd (In Administration) registered in the United Kingdom at 1000 Lakeside, Suite 310, Third Floor N E Wing, Portsmouth, Hampshire, PO6 3EN, Thanks to the addition of that big 52t cog, the GX Eagle gear range now on offer is a whopping 520 per cent (Shimano’s is 510 per cent for reference).

The Eagle chain has been completely re-engineered, and is produced with new manufacturing technology. Unique features and design also provide significantly improved wear resistance on Eagle cassettes and rings Flow Link: This chain’s Ultra-smooth chain inner-plates are completely devoid of square edges, resulting in a chain that engages the cassette and chainring with far less friction, for quieter performance and better wear life. The design allows a narrower overall profile and a flatter outer-plate that can withstand greater shifting angles. This means more consistent chain riveting and enhanced overall strength are achieved. Finance is subject to application, financial circumstances and borrowing history.

In addition to all the mechanical options at the GX level, this is the first time you have options for electronic shifting with the SRAM GX AXS system. AXS means a fully wireless version of the GX drivetrain with all the same features otherwise. The battery attaches to the rear derailleur and charging means just popping it off and into the charger. The batteries will last for months, but if you plan to head out on an epic journey then as the batteries are small, it's easy to carry extras.The new cassette is the biggest news here, which uses 123 stainless steel pins to hold the cogs (11 steel and one aluminium) together. The new rear derailleur will work with both the 10-50t and 10-52t cassettes Russell Burton / Immediate Media Only Eagle is a complete system-engineered drivetrain designed, tested and proven to deliver the lightest, highest-performing, most durable system for all riders on any trail.
