If you don't fancy electronics on your bike but don't want to do without the advantages of a modern 1x12 drivetrain, SRAM offers you the perfect alternative with its mechanical Apex shifting components. With its ease of use, high reliability and wide range of gear ratios, the mechanical Apex groupset is suitable for a wide variety of bikes.In addition to the XPLR version with an 11-44 tooth cassette, the Apex Eagle version is available for cassettes with up to 52 teeth. For the more ambitious biker, the matching Apex Quarq power meter crank arm is available.
The Apex rear derailleur has been developed for SRAM XPLR 12-speed cassettes with 10-44 and 11-44 teeth. Numerous proven technologies from the SRAM product range have been incorporated into the development to ensure high shifting precision and optimum chain guidance. For example, the rear derailleur has a vibration damping system that controls the chain tension during shifting operations and in the event of vibrations. The X-Horizon parallelogram, originally developed for mountain bikes, limits horizontal rear derailleur vibrations and thus eliminates ghost shifting. It also reduces shifting forces on the cockpit. The integrated cage lock ensures easy wheel changes. The rear derailleur is compatible with SRAM Flattop chains and can be shifted with a mechanical Apex shift/brake lever as well as with SRAM Eagle trigger shifters.
