Sram GX Type 2.1 rear derailleur

The Sram GX rear derailleur features a Roller Bearing Clutch for regulating chain tension and a Cage Lock for easy wheel removal and installation. The GX 10-speed components replace the Sram X9 series, incorporating the technology of Sram’s 11-speed MTB series.

SRAM Type 2 Roller Bearing Clutch:

In the new rear derailleurs, Roller Bearing Clutch Technology ensures that the cage can build up tension. A needle-bearing clutch prevents the chain from moving forward too easily; the chain remains taut and does not strike the derailleur hanger. This reliably prevents the chain from coming off, even without a chain guide on the crank.

SRAM Type 2.1 Cage Lock:

To enable quick and easy removal of the rear wheel, Sram employs Cage Lock Technology in the Type 2.1 rear derailleurs. At the touch of a button, the derailleur cage locks into place and can be swung out without tension, making wheel removal significantly easier. Once the rear wheel has been refitted, the cage is swung far forward, the spring tension is re-engaged, and the derailleur is ready for the trail.
