Dubbed “Eagle” XX1 and X01, SRAM is adding yet another label to their list of product names, so equate anything regarding “Eagle” and “Eagle Technology” with 12-speed. According to SRAM,

“The new XX1 and X01 drivetrains, featuring Eagle™ Technology, are collections of components that have been engineered for a whole new level of ride quality and integration. These drivetrains have not only been refined, we have torn them apart, built them up, tested, tweaked, engineered and tested again. Eagle™ Technology delivers a drivetrain that is smoother, simpler, more durable and quieter than anything you’ve ever ridden. Add to that Eagle’s massive  gear range, and you have greater freedom to ride how you want, where you want. Performance, durability, simplicity, range, freedom: Introducing Eagle™, only from SRAM.”

Just how big is that gear range? With the new 10-50 tooth cassette: 500%.
