This new derailleur not only answers the Eagle drivetrain’s need for greater capacity, but is also the next evolution of sram’s proven, 1x-specific X-HORIZON design. The larger, 14-tooth X-SYNC lower pulley, allows 10 to 50-tooth cassette capacity in this compact design, and also adds to Eagle’s overall smooth-pedalling feel. The new, Type-3 ROLLER BEARING CLUTCH features a smoother torque curve for a quieter, more consistent operation and feel. CAGE LOCK has been moved back and out of the way, protecting it from trail debris. A redesigned, robust mounting system further improves the Eagle derailleur’s performance and overall durability.
