Exact Actuation

Exact Actuation



When we launched our road technology from scratch we reapplied our MTB proven SRAM 1:1 actuation ratio (shifter cable travel : derailleur movement) for 10 speed rear shifting. EA helps to simplify/stabilize the uneasy act of balancing rear derailleur hanger design, tight cog spacing and exact cable tension. The result: the easiest index shifting system to set up and it stays that way.

X-Glide

X-Glide



X-Glide is the common denominator that gives 2X10 unmatched shifting performance. Four identical upshift locations, ready to be be picked up by any outer link. Result? Perfect timing, almost instaneous shifts, up or down, even under load.

Pros: Good quality. Sturdy construction and good cable retention. Many options with the clamp and pull style.

Cons: None.

Recommendation: I use the X9 2x10 and find that it shifts freakishly fast from low to high and vise-versa. Unlike older designs the cage does not wiggle. Everything is rock solid and exact.
