SRAM XX SL T‑Type Eagle Transmission AXS Groupset 170mm (10–52T)
The SRAM XX SL T‑Type Eagle Transmission AXS Groupset (170mm) is the lightest, most race‑focused way to step into Transmission‑level shifting performance for cross‑country and modern trail builds. Designed for riders who want crisp gear changes when it matters most—on steep climbs, punchy accelerations, and technical race lines—this groupset delivers a clean, cable‑free cockpit and a drivetrain that thrives under load.
At the centre of the system is the XX SL T‑Type Eagle Transmission rear derailleur, built around SRAM’s hangerless Transmission concept for improved robustness and alignment. Paired with SRAM’s proven AXS wireless ecosystem, it’s quick to set up, easy to customise, and simple to maintain—ideal for riders who want a premium drivetrain upgrade without the ongoing hassle of cable stretch or traditional adjustment routines.
The drivetrain is completed with SRAM’s XS‑1299 10–52T cassette and XX SL Flattop chain (126 links), a combination engineered to deliver consistent engagement and dependable shifting even when you’re pushing hard through the pedals. SRAM’s full X‑SYNC tooth profiling is designed to keep the chain engaged and shifting predictably, especially during high‑torque efforts common in XC racing and aggressive trail riding.
On the crank side, this kit includes the XX SL DUB crankset (170mm) with Q168 and 55mm chainline, plus a direct‑mount 34T chainring tuned for the Transmission system. The result is a lightweight, stiff and efficient power delivery platform built for modern MTB geometry and wide‑range gearing.
Control is handled through the AXS Pod ULT, featuring a fast “click and fire” two‑button design that keeps shifting precise and intuitive. It’s a popular option for riders who want a more personal control feel and a cleaner bar setup—especially when paired with dropper levers, remote lockouts, and cockpit accessories.
For riders shopping in Brisbane, Queensland and across Australia, this is the kind of groupset typically installed as part of a premium MTB drivetrain upgrade, often alongside professional bike service items like hanger/frame compatibility checks, chain length setup, AXS firmware updates, and full shifting optimisation.
