I’ve watched about 28 of these videos today. This is by far the best. Taking the whole rear triangle off explained this so well. Well done bro 🤙🏼
Heck yeah, comments like this make ripping things apart all worth while. Glad it helped!
Thanks for the review. I’m sticking to cables for now but glad the technology and ease of use continues to improve.
It's definitely fun to watch this stuff evolve. This was a really big leap, and cool to see and get to experience. I went back to cables after running the last AXS system, but I see myself leaving this set-up on this particular bike for the foreseeable future, which is encouraging. It'll be cool to see how all of this trickles down in the coming years.
Thanks, that was a great run through of it. We will be staying down there for Easter weekend and plan on riding Raccoon.
I was watching this post and then my neighbor came and we watched it together. He said this post really changed his life and it touched my heart. My village people are so grateful. Am proud to say cool post wow thanks for sharing...!!
Very interesting. It definitely sounds like it's solved a few of the issues I've had with the current wireless setup. Now I have to ask the question. Why the hell didn't SRAM send ME one!!! 😂
You already get all the liquor and deodorant!
Great review bud! That trail looks fun AF!
Your channel is quickly becoming one of my favorites. Great content! I've been sold on the Onyx silence for several years now. I'm hoping when Specialized refreshes my bike model (stumpy) that the Transmission and Flight Attendant will be offered. I will continue to use shimano brakes, so look for my takeoffs on Pinkbike.
Happy to hear you like channel! There's probably a good chance that package will be there when they refresh. I still haven't tried flight attendant, but I did just get the new Zeb Ult. and Super Deluxe Ult. in to try out.
Great review Rich!
Glad you enjoyed it
Awesome video you should do a comparison between the weights of a standard drivetrain compared to the transmission
yea when the pictures of this leaked, it was very impressive
Looks sick my man. I want to get the new SRAM drivetrain. I had code ultimates on my YT Capra pro race. That was something special sram did with YT in 2018. I bet the new ones are even better. Good job as always brother.🔥
Love those Codes! Thanks my man!
@@SemiSendy 🔥
Would be nice if they offered a cable version for us non-dentists haha
To be honest, I doubt they will unless they determine the overall strength of the system ultimately isn't that reliant on the motor's retraction ability.
My new bike has the 2022 AXS and it is quiet as a mouse. Happy I lucked out in that department.
Nicely done!!
Thanks, my man!
Can't wait for this tech to trickle down to the NX range
The energy that's going on the Derailleur in Case of a crash, where does it go? Frame? In case of Fullys maybe even the Shock? The force of the impact will go somewhere and not just evaporate magically... I'm really curious how this is going to work out...
Instead of breaking your derailleur you’ll break your rear triangle. Innovation!!
This right here needs to be discussed more.
The piece that bolts to the bike is sacrificial
@@Andy-co6pn Yeah now instead of paying for a cheap new hanger you can buy expensive drivetrain parts, so innovative!
@@christiandruan will it be expensive? Dunno , we will have to wait and see. If you don't like it you could always use Shimano ?
Nice one Allie for taking one for the team! This new stuff seems awesome. Time to start applying for loans so that I can afford them!
😂
That's insane quiet.
So glad my new bike came with the UDH, future proof for at least a little while👍
Glad I found this review, i have a V2s also and was on the fence, 99% certain i’ve now fallen off it, now do i go GX or X0…..
wow the bike sounds silent! goes to show just how much noise we get from our mechanical/previous axs groups! this is the dream for me if it really is that quiet on the trails, as i got rid of my axs due to the horrid chain slap
It really is surreal having it be so quiet.
I had no idea you were in the Chattanooga area. I drive up there whenever possible to ride Raccoon Mnt from Huntsville, AL. High voltage and live wire 1 being my favorites. I’ve only done of couple other trials I think electric Ave and laurel point. Maybe I’ll see you out there sometime. Great work on the channel.
Raccoon is a total blast. That Electric-Laurel-High Voltage section is so good!
You'll have to come check out Walden's once we get it open. It's absolutely incredible.
@@SemiSendy where is Walden’s ? I’d love to get a ride in with you up there. I def like the look of that lower chunky.
Great review Rich, I’m not a huge fan of the wireless shifter. With that being said I’m very curious to feel the shifting on that thing. 🤙
Thanks, Erik!
Hi, great stuff !
Could you please advise, is that knurled washer sitting against the frame and eating into it or is it hard against the bushing that goes in first ?
Thank you.
Wow! Looks amazing. One of those ‘why didn’t someone think of this before’ moments. Will this design feature across the range or is it just for the electronic wireless shifters?
I'm not sure what the future plans are, but if I had to guess I'd say it's likely just for electronic.
had my axs on my ebike for a few months now and the app said not to use multi shift on a ebike so turned all that on and shifts fine going 30mph under load and its not fell off yet
Do you need to buy a new chainring for the new chain or will a normal eagle chainring work with the new chain?
And where does the Energy of an Impact go? Direct into the Frame?
I'm on a trek rail, My rear hub is going out. Probably going to try and go with an internally geared hub and a belt. Think sram is a bit out of my price range though, hoping the Shimano will work.
Let us know how the geared hub works out for you if you go that route!
Can I still use my thru axle with a handle to easily remove/put-back-on the rear wheel, or do I now need a wrench to remove/put-back-on the rear wheel? And if I need a wrench to remove/put-back-on the rear wheel, must it be a torque wrench?
Is that a serrated grip washer they give you to put directly against the chain stay?!
I'm not really convinced it's a good idea to bolt the derailleur directly to the frame. I'd rather replace a hanger than the frame.
100%
I Can’t wait to see all of the Treks with snapped off dropouts in the months to come.
@@323johnnybravo looks like the load is on the axle, not the frame
@@SeanKWhite-lk5zf What's that axle screwed into?
@@crazybigball82 the frame. But in double sheer there is really no leverage on that corner of the frame. The derailleur or axle would likely fail before the frame.
Totally non sram related but how are you liking the Float X on the Ripmo compared to Float X2? Considering moving to Float X over here.
I like it, but I’m definitely a huge fan of the X2. If I had to pick one, I would go X2.
My bike isnt UDH compatible, so I havent been able to check out the interface. If you were to put your bike in a stand and drop the rear wheel, how does the derailleur stay connected to the frame without an axle in?
The derailleur is mounted to the frame and not dependent on the axle to stay in place. The axel just bolts into it. You remove the axel and wheel just as normal, and the derailleur stays in the exact same tension setting.
Is the extra weight worth it though?
Man I love the look of transmission, just hope SRAM isn't baiting us into DRM MTB products with user serviceability and then remove it in the next gen.
Would love to hear if this is backwards compatible to bikes without the UDH hanger in any way or if the manufacturer needs to come up with some kind of upgradekit for their frames.
Unfortunately it’s not. UDH is compatible with all derailleurs, but the Eagle Transmission is only compatible with UDH.
@@SemiSendy I guess, that is good and bad. Bad for the bikes I own, good for my wallet 🤣 although I just found out my ebike does have the UDH. Oh noes.
3:47 will this work with chain guides? like absolute black/77designz oval bash guide.
It's safe to assume the bash plates would not. You would need to remove them.
Just can’t get over the price . I know you are getting a lot with that price and the fact it comes with cranks I don’t want. Just need a stinger clutch on my old axs and it would be golden
it will trickle down to the gx group eventually...
Dang man. I'm going to have to go Sram. Does this mean when taking off the rear wheel the derailleur needs to be retorqued? Thanks for the video. Rich.
Ah, the derailleur is independently torqued to the frame, so not at all. It stays in the exact same tension point, and you remove the axel and wheels as normal. Pretty slick!
@Semi-Sendy oh snap. That part where you rode through that Boulder section of Raccoons Mtn pretty much sold me. That's so awesome it keeps it in place without noise. Very slick!
im really not sure about not having a weak point in case you smash the derailleur.
i rather brake off a derailleur than damaging the frame.
I definitely understand and appreciate the skepticism that's out there. I've given it a lot of thought since I've had this in hand, and I think time will prove in Sram's favor. There's a lot to read through in their documentation, but suffice to say they really dove in on testing and proofing things out.
One of our friends just cracked his frame because of this transmission already. 😂
what are these glasses in 6:30?
What trail system and state is this? Looks awesome!
Raccoon Mtn. in Chattanooga, TN.
OK, now what? AXS or cable? Is it worth the inhuman money?
What if you have a Shimano micro spline driver on your hub❓
then you dont run this
Most hubs can swap between Microspine and XD drivers.
@@SemiSendy thats true but you need to buy a newfreehub body right
@@SemiSendy Hubs from 3rd party manufacturers. If you have a Shimano Hub they don't offer a XD freehub body
@@simonm1447 Hence the "most". Some do, some don't. 🙂
New axs looks sleek but the new shifter looks a little uncomfy
I like it better than the previous, but I'll need some long term time on it to formulate any final thoughts on it.
Wow…
Why the integrated bash guards?
Not fully integrated, you can remove or replace them. Pretty slick design.
@@SemiSendy But you would still bend your chainring if it hits 🤷🏻♂️
@@Eric.V. if it's a hard enough impact to bend a chainring, yes.
@@SemiSendy I’m all for innovation and cool bike shit! However, the initial and ongoing costs to replace worn items will deter most people. Great vid 😎👍
It protects the chain from having the side plates smashed, which causes stiff links.
@0:55 - is that Racoonn MTN?
edit: @5:41 - aah you said it
@2:41 - nvmd! I recognize that Chunky drop!
People complaining because the fuse is gone for the der to be save, but prob they have never broken one
HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE
where did u purchase this
You can purchase it now from N+1 bikes, which I linked in the description and end of the video. They take great care of fans of the channel, so let them know I sent you!
But...but...but...how are hikers going to hear me coming now.
The future is here... for $1600
The transmission will turn into a smartphone in the future, it will constantly annoy with its updates, now it is not, but in the future it will be exactly like that. The mechanics are excellent, electro poop.
Usual rush to market from Sram. It will require perfect dropout production from the factory which is not a given plus releasing and clamping the wheel will affect this too. It has a serrated contact with the frame which will more than likely be carbon, this will degrade over time. Tough it might be but where is the shock going, yep through the carbon triangle, pivot bearings, freehub bearings etc. Maybe Sram should concentrate on getting the basics right like making a decent affordable groupset that is not shit, i.e NX SX. Not convinced it is necessary or wise in the long-term plus the prices are ridiculous.
I definitely get what you're speculating here in regards to the dropout production, but the way the cassette and axel are interfacing with the derailleur and not with the frame itself, means that there's reasonable wiggle room on the frame manufacturing end of things. The axel is always going to thread into the derailleur the same way, and line up the cassette the same.
well, but money
Trashmission shifts like crap, honestly after 90 days of adjustments. Eagle AXS Was superior. Must faster and more precise.
👎
WHAT HAPPENS WITH A STICK GETTING CAUGHT IN THE DRIVELINE? Will A stick in the derailleur kill your frame?.....Fail review
The tensioner wheels have a freewheel mechanism, I've never seen it before
The future? Not at that price,no no no!
