Why We Like The GX Eagle AXS Upgrade Kit
Masters of trickle-down technology, SRAM has impressed us again with the GX Eagle AXS Upgrade Kit. We’re installing this on our bikes right away, ditching the cables and housing that clunk around in our frames all day. Long-awaited, GX AXS Eagle opens the door for a lot more than just dentists to have electronic shifting. GX AXS uses the same proprietary wireless tech as other AXS items, so just like mechanical AXS we'll be able to mix and match the full system.
Ahead of the game, the new GX wireless shifting from SRAM enjoys all the years of testing that X01 and XX1 went through. We’re especially enjoying the crisp feel of the electronic drivetrain, and that every shift feels the same when the element of human error is taken out of the equation. Easy to adjust, the upgrade kit hooks up to the SRAM AXS app instead of having to drag out the toolbox.
- Trickle-down tech brings Eagle AXS to a lower price point
- Enjoy precise, silent, and reliable shifting performance
- Long-lasting alloy design shaves weight without compromise

- Upgradable buttons on shifter for better ergonomics

- Upgrade kit includes battery, charger, shifter, and derailleur

As good as they say it is
- Familiarity:
- I've used it several times
This is a very early review but so far, it has exceeded expectations. Setup in minutes and the shifting in on point every time. I know some upgrade to the new rocker paddle, but I like the shifter it comes with...got used to it very quick. Hopefully it holds up as well as they claim.

Sram Does It Again
- Familiarity:
- I've put it through the wringer
- Fit:
- Runs large
Sram recently released this new GX AXS Upgrade kit, and they nailed it! I've been running the previous XX1 AXS on my bike and it is flawless, the only issue with XX1 is the price! I definitely think it was worth spending the extra cash for XX1 because at the time i bought it, It was the most current and up-to-date. Sram took the fantastic X01 and XX1 AXS Kits, lowered the price, and packaged it down to the GX AXS, the workhorse of Srams drivetrains. Without sacrificing shift quality, The GX AXS kit just weighs a little bit more. So if you want to jump into electronic shifting on the MTB, this will work on all Eagle Drivetrains. if you have any other questions, feel free to shoot me an email, and I can help get you everything you need to make the switch to Electric! samason@backcountry.com

My current Mtb has a new Sram AXS Reverb dropper seat post which I purchased from you and I LOVE it! My question is: Will the Sram GX Eagle AXS upgrade kit work on my SRAM XG 10-42, 11 speed XD compatible only cassette? Thanks, and keep up the great work and customer service!
