SRAM's commitment to drivetrains with wide range gearing and ultra-precise rear shifting is well known. The development of X-Dome technology for mountain bikes using the XD Driver free hub system has kept cassette weight manageable and performance solid. With the release of the GX mountain drivetrain system, the XG-1150 11-Speed Cassette was released with a 10-42 cluster for XD drivers. This remarkable cassette perfectly complements the 1x or 2x GX set-ups for trail use. The introduction of FULL PIN™ joining technology to connect the 11 stamped steel cogs via high strength stainless steel pins creates a cassette that is stiff, strong, clears mud, and shifts smoothly. At 394 grams and a very affordable price, SRAM has delivered a new cassette design that won't break the bank and maintains impeccable 11-speed wide range shifting.

The distinctive black XG-1150 has been treated through SRAM's JET™ finish process, which is an extremely durable coating that eases shifting and provides a high level of corrosion resistance for the chromoly steel cogs. The FULL PIN™ process creates an open design much like the X-Dome cassettes. Mud is shed easily and quickly through the spin of the cassette and shifting action, delivering cleaner shifting performance and longer component life. The end result is a strong performing cassette that gives you many hours of smooth shifting on the trail. And compared to the cost of other wide range options, it may have the best balance of performance and durability to cost on the market.
