Groupsets & Components * | Sram X01 Eagle Grip Shift

Three Decades Ago, Sram Was Founded On A Product Called Grip Shift, And An Idea That Shifting A Bike Should Be Easier, Better And More Intuitive.

It’S More Advanced Than The Original, But The All-New X01 Eagle Grip Shift Follows In The Same Tradition Of Making Shifting Easier, Better And More Intuitive. The New X01 Eagle Grip Shift System Includes New, Robust Internals That Make It More Durable And Its Shifting Performance More Precise. But Just Like The Original, It Is Total Control In The Palm Of Your Hand.

Sram Xx1 Eagle | Sram X01 | Mtb-Mag.Com | March 2016

“We Loved The Fact That We Could Pedal(Ride) Faster On The Downhills: With The 34-10 It’S Easy To Reach 40 Km/H Pedaling, And This Can Be An Advantage When Racing. Combined To The Fact That The 50T Cog Allows To Climb Every Steep Trail In Sight, The Eagle Reaches The Purpose Of Widening The Reach Of The Single Chainring Drivetrains, Even For Those Who Felt The 1 11 Was Too Short, Both For Racing And For Recreational Purpose.” View Article

Sram Xx1 & X01 Eagle Pinkbike’S First Impressions

“The Most Immediate Sensation Was Just How Smooth The Drivetrain Felt. Sure, A Brand New Drivetrain Will Always Feel Better Than One That’S Had The Snot Beat Out Of It For Months, But This Was Something Different. The Interaction Between The Chain And Chainring Feels Absolutely Seamless, Almost As If It Were Somehow One Unit Rather Than Two Separate Components.” View Article
