I’m totally and completely onboard with SRAM’s new 2×10 XX drivetrain (read my thoughts from Interbike 2009) as it makes complete sense. Who can argue with eliminating duplicate gear ratios, simplifying front shifting and dropping weight? I know I sure can’t and neither should you.
I just got word that for 2011, SRAM will be introducing a 2×10 version of their workhorse X7 drivetrain. By coming in with the X7 announcement, it’s only a matter of time (weeks, days) before we start hearing about X9 and X0 2×10’s as well.
While X7 isn’t as sexy as the XX grouppo, it sure will save riders a ton of coin while providing excellent performance. Lets face it, the current X7 is going to perform as well as the X0 grouppo from 2-3 years ago (or better), which is still pretty darn good if you ask me. The crew at BikeRadar.com broke the story on the X7 announcement, so if you want dirty details, click here. Otherwise, check out the photos of the new 2011 X7 drivetrain and hang tight… it’s gonna get even better in SRAM land.
