The new Sram GX Eagle Transmission rear derailleur has a revised battery position to better protect against impacts and ensure crisp shifting throughout its service life. Hardcore riders can replace both the skid plates and the two-piece outer link. It also features a tool-less cage assembly that can be both disassembled and upgraded. Also on board is a steel inner cage, which is intended to provide even more robustness. Like all Eagle Transmission rear derailleurs, this one is also equipped with a new derailleur hanger-free interface, which is mounted around the wheel axle and comes into direct contact with the cassette.

The new groupset is completed with a cassette, a crankset for E- and non-E-bikes and a chain with the flattop design.

Sram is also moving forward with the recently introduced stealth design of the brake levers: the brake lines for the Code and Level brakes with two and four pistons also run close to the handlebars away from the brake lever.
