Sram® GX Eagle Lunar Rear Derailleur | 12 Speed | Long Cage

Shift with Confidence Unveiling the Power of the SRAM GX Eagle Rear Derailleur

For mountain bike enthusiasts, conquering challenging terrain requires a drivetrain that delivers flawless performance. The SRAM GX Eagle rear derailleur rises to the occasion, boasting a perfect blend of innovative technology, rugged construction, and user-friendly features. This 12-speed workhorse empowers you to tackle any climb, navigate technical descents, and experience the pure joy of mountain biking with confidence.

Engineered for Precision Shifting

The GX Eagle rear derailleur prioritizes exceptional shifting performance. SRAM's proprietary X-HORIZON design eliminates the possibility of ghost shifting, a common concern for mountain bikers. This innovative design ensures all derailleur movement happens strictly on the horizontal axis, preventing unwanted chain movement and providing a crisp, direct feel during gear changes.

Furthermore, the X-SYNC technology plays a crucial role in maintaining chain retention. The tall square teeth profile of X-SYNC chainrings engages the chain earlier and more securely compared to traditional designs. This minimizes the risk of dropped chains, especially when navigating rough terrain or under high pedaling pressure.

Finally, X-ACTUATION technology guarantees optimal shifting performance specifically tailored for SRAM 1x drivetrains. This ensures consistent and reliable gear changes across the entire cassette, allowing you to focus on the trail ahead, not on your drivetrain.

Built to Handle the Toughest Trails

The GX Eagle rear derailleur isn't just about flawless shifting; it's engineered for exceptional durability. The long cage design offers compatibility with wider-range cassettes, including the massive 52-tooth cog, providing a gear range suitable for tackling even the steepest climbs.

SRAM's ROLLER BEARING CLUTCH (RBC) technology is another testament to the GX Eagle's commitment to reliability. This innovative feature eliminates chain slap and derailleur bounce, a common issue on technical descents. By utilizing a one-way clutch mechanism, the RBC absorbs chain tension during impacts, keeping your drivetrain quiet and composed, even on the roughest trails.

CAGE LOCK technology adds another layer of user-friendliness. This ingenious feature allows you to easily lock the derailleur cage in place, simplifying wheel removal and chain installation. This saves you time and frustration when performing routine maintenance on your bike.

Uncompromising Strength and Lightweight Design

The GX Eagle rear derailleur finds the perfect balance between strength and weight. The aluminum cage construction offers a lightweight design that minimizes overall drivetrain weight, without compromising durability. This translates to a bike that climbs efficiently and feels responsive on the trail.

Steel pulley bearings ensure long-lasting performance and reliable operation in all weather conditions. These robust bearings can withstand mud, dust, and moisture, ensuring your GX Eagle derailleur continues to deliver smooth and precise shifting, ride after ride.

Aesthetic Appeal to Match Peak Performance

The GX Eagle rear derailleur isn't just a technical marvel; it's also a visual treat. It comes in the stylish GX Eagle™ master colorway, seamlessly integrating with any Eagle™ cassette and chain color combination. This allows you to personalize your bike's aesthetics while enjoying the exceptional performance of the GX Eagle drivetrain.

Invest in the SRAM GX Eagle rear derailleur and experience the difference. With its innovative features, rugged construction, and user-friendly design, this derailleur empowers you to shift with confidence and focus on conquering the trails ahead.
