Key Benefits & Advanced Features
Benefit from an updated design meticulously engineered for remarkably smoother and faster shifting. Each gear change is crisp, immediate, and reliable, allowing you to maintain your cadence and power output without hesitation, a hallmark of the SRAM wireless electronic shifting ecosystem. Enjoy a more intuitive and gradual gear progression between cogs. With at least five one-tooth jumps, you can fine-tune your effort and find the perfect gear more easily, eliminating jarring changes in cadence. This thoughtful design still manages to provide an impressively wide overall range, ensuring you´re prepared for any terrain the road presents.
The innovative 10-tooth starting cog is fundamental to providing a wider and more usable gearing range. This allows for smaller chainrings up front without sacrificing top-end speed, contributing to a lighter, simpler, and more efficient drivetrain system. At its core, the cassette features the incredible one-piece machined steel X-Dome™ construction. This advanced manufacturing process carves the cassette from a single block of steel, resulting in an exceptionally lightweight yet incredibly strong and durable component. This design significantly reduces rotational weight, enhancing acceleration and climbing prowess.
Engineered for modern wheel standards, the XG-1290 cassette is specifically designed for seamless integration with an XDR™ driver body. This robust interface ensures a secure connection and enables the use of the 10-tooth cog. For riders using Zipp wheels, compatibility is assured as all models starting from 2012 are XDR™ ready.
