SRAM GX Eagle 12-Speed Rear Twist Shifter

The SRAM GX Eagle 12-speed rear twist shifter is designed to let you change gear without taking your hand off the grip. It works with a 12-speed rear derailleur and uses a cable with the X-actuation system. This is the right-hand version for the rear derailleur, with a mounting clamp included.

The internal mechanism has been reinforced compared with the previous version, with more precise shifting according to the manufacturer. The colour is black. The kit also includes the left-hand grip, and the cable is 2200 mm long, a measurement to check against your frame. The shifter has no gear indicator, so it is worth getting used to operating it without visual references.

Founded in Chicago in 1987 by Stan Day and a group of cycling enthusiasts, SRAM is still based in the US city today. It makes drivetrains and brakes for road, gravel and mountain bikes. Its story began with a single product: Grip Shift, the shifter that lets riders change gear by twisting the grip.
