Sram refines the X9 series shifters

From January 2012, Sram will be upgrading the shift levers of the X9 groupset and bringing them technologically up to the level of the XX and XO series.

The production of all X9 trigger shifters in all common colors and speeds - i.e. 2x10, 3x10 and 3x9 - will be adapted to the design of the higher-quality counterparts.

The same ball bearing technology as in XX and X0 shifters is used. By using the ball bearing instead of a simple bushing inside the shifter housing, Sram promises to offer more precise, faster and smoother shifting.
