For the first time SRAM offers the right combination of matching SRAM X7 components. SRAM X7 features 2X10 drivetrain, X-Glide front shifting, Exact Actuation, new PowerGlide cassette ratios, carbon cage rear derailleurs, new S1400 crank offering and Avid Elixir R brakes. SRAM 2X10 is becoming understood by riders of all levels and segments by delivering a full range of usable gears, less weight and faster and smoother shifting. We build on this with choice, and a strong materials mix aimed at mid-level XC to entry level downhillers and freeriders.
X7 10-Speed Rear Derailleur
New technologies, finish and family strategy create a cohesive performance story. X7 intends to deliver the highest value MTB components in its class. We’ve built in our award winning 10 Speed Exact Actuation shifting technology giving you XX shifting performance at the X7 level. We upgrade our materials story with a 3K carbon pulley cage. We added our new Storm Grey Finish and family graphics package.

Giga X Pipe (GXP) Bottom Bracket
Gutter drastically improves sealing against the elements while reducing seal drag. We’ve designed a fresh new cup forging for a new high-end look. A new standard in external bearing performance.
While other systems rely on side loading the bearings to eliminate play, which causes premature bearing wear, the GXP system is different. The GXP system captures the left side bearing between the spindle and the left crankarm while allowing the drive-side bearing to float axially on the spindle, thereby eliminating the necessity to side-load bearings during adjustment. The simplicity of installation is refined: once it is tightened to the proper specifications you are ready to roll with a worry free BB. The GXP system uses two bicycle specific cartridge bearings and eight seals for a smooth and long lasting ride.
