SRAM Apex 1 rear derailleur controls chain slap by design
The Apex 1 rear derailleur combines a Roller Bearing Clutch with X-HORIZON geometry to control chain tension and reduce shift force, addressing both ghost shifting and chain slap without relying on one mechanism to do both jobs. Long cage capacity fits up to a 42-tooth cog across a 10-42T cassette range, and a large upper pulley offset automatically adjusts chain gap as the derailleur travels.
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I've used CAGE LOCK to pin the cage forward during a quick wheel swap, and it eliminates the wrestling match with chain tension that usually comes with it. Getting a wheel off and back on stops being the annoying part of the job."
