What cassette size ranges do you offer for Eagle AXS
™
?
SRAM Eagle AXS
™
uses the X-DOME Eagle
™
cassette
with a 10-50T gear range. A cassette with a proven track
record of performance, features and design.
What type of freehub body is required for
Eagle AXS
™
cassettes?
An XD
™
driver body is required for Eagle AXS
™
cassette
compatibility.
Is a special cassette tool required to install or
remove SRAM Eagle AXS
™
cassettes?
No. These cassettes require a standard HG-style
cassette tool with a 7-8mm spline depth.
Is there a cassette available with an 11-tooth start so I don’t
have to change the driver on my rear wheel to XD
™
?
SRAM offers a PG-1230 Eagle
™
cassette which utilises the HG
splined driver body interface. This is compatible with all of
our Eagle
™
drivetrain parts as part of the Eagle
™
ecosystem.
However, for optimum performance the XG-1295 and XG-1299
cassettes are used in the Eagle AXS
™
offering.
Are special chain tools, chain pliers, or chain whips required
to work on Eagle AXS
™
drivetrains?
The Eagle AXS
™
B-gap tool is used to set the correct position
for the AXS
™
derailleur. It should be noted that the AXS
™
B-Gap
tool is different than the current Eagle
™
B-Gap tool and they
are not compatible. The majority of standard and professional
tools will work on Eagle AXS
™
drivetrains. Care should
always be taken to ensure the tool is fully compatible with
each component - this can be found on tool manufacturers
specifications and websites.
