Transmission? Is this an auto-shifting drivetrain system? That is the first question we heard the name without any detailed information. While optimized to be used with standard or e-bike set-ups, SRAM's X0 Eagle Transmission AXS components don't shift themselves. Transmission, of pedaling force, with gearing changes, is what every drivetrain delivers. What makes the Eagle Transmission system a benchmark in a drivetrain? For one it is a fully integrated system, or ecosystem of components that, while carrying the AXS label, will NOT integrate with older, non-Transmission components. However, it needs to stand alone to deliver incredible strength, nearly unbelievable shifting under the highest pedaling loads in the worst chainlines, yet has light weights within the riding class each group has been designed for. Looking carefully at the details, the derailleur cage, crankset and more, you will be shocked at what is overbuilt, yet is seemingly stripped away. A single web search of people standing on the direct mount rear derailleur, then watching it shift without hesitation or skipping will likely sell you on the capabilities of this trail/Enduro rated X0 Eagle Transmission AXS Groupset.

SRAM's answer to the call to create a ruggedly dependable transmission for your Enduro needs, the X0 T-Type AXS Transmission groupset is their most robust high-performance transmission. The all-new Transmission series take a holistic approach to a bicycles shifting, an entire system synchronized, providing you with a superior ride experience. Shifting under load is made possible on the X0 cassette due to a combination of X-SYNC technology and cassette mapping, creating seamless shifts even during your hardest power output. The X0 Transmission DUB crankset is most advanced aluminum crankset SRAM has ever made, it is utterly unique and simply striking. providing riders with the legitimate performance X0 stands for, courtesy of a ground-breaking all-aluminum design with a perfectly balanced stiffness to weight ratio. It is also the lightest aluminum crankset in the market. For more rugged terrain the X0 rings are compatible with SRAM's new removable bashguards- one of which comes with the included crankset in this boxed groupset.

The X0 Eagle Transmission Flattop chain features a Dark Polar finish specific to X0, has been plated with electroless nickel, and comes with a PVD coating for unbelievable resistance to corrosion and wear. This chain is also fully approved for E-MTB use with solid pins, so you know it will easily handle standard mountain bike drivetrain strain. Featuring a “click and fire” two-button design, The AXS Pod ULT transforms the crucial act of rider inputs into a vastly more personal experience for all your AXS controls. The essence of AXS (access) as a wireless shifting system is applied here in a new way, so Eagle Transmission, which as mentioned was conceived and engineered as a truly synchronized drivetrain experience, is not compatible with previous Eagle or Eagle AXS components. It doesn't take a long look to see that this is a whole new design, so despite the "Eagle AXS 12-Speed" identifier, Eagle Transmission is a whole new world.
