The SRAM X01 Eagle 12 Speed Grip Shifter brings things full circle, encompassing the company's groundbreaking new 1x12 speed design in the package that first brought SRAM into the limelight 30 years ago. Claimed as SRAM's founding product, grip shift has weathered the years, bringing back a nostalgic air of carefree neighborhood adventures during summer break, tenuous jump setups, and general two wheeled glee.The internals have also grown up over the years to land at the top tier of SRAM's off road drivetrain offerings. Our childhood ideal of nylon bushings and plastic internals is replaced with three rows of stainless steel ball bearings and the rock and roll action of SRAM's Speed Metal alloy indexing. The Jaws lock on grips maintain a secure hold on the shifting mechanism with corresponding teeth that are themselves locked into place with aluminum clamps.
