Press Release:
First, we delivered the dream of the perfect mountain bike shift. Now we’re delivering the dream of ultimate performance for the mechanical mountain bike transmission too. This is Eagle Mechanical Transmission. The world’s first mechanical groupsets to use a Full Mount interface instead of a derailleur hanger. The first to let you shift anywhere, under absolute power, without compromising or compensating. It’s the world’s first mechanical system with incredibly easy “prepare, hang, tighten” installation, no adjustment screws needed. Rebuildable. Reliable. Affordable. Mechanical Transmission is the dream, delivered.
Eagle 90 Transmission
Eagle 90 Transmission delivers the dream of the world’s best mechanical shifting. Crazy robust with Full-Mount toughness, ultra simple setup and unprecedented sure-thing shifting under max power. It also features the most rebuildable derailleur ever. Simply unstoppable.
Eagle 70 Transmission
Eagle 70 Transmission gives riders radical toughness, with reliability, durability and simplicity to match. Ready for whatever you throw its way, 70 is aesthetically aligned, and fully compatible with all T-Type components, forming the foundation of the Eagle Transmission Ecosystem.

Tough and robust.
Hangerless Interface and Full Mount give the Eagle Transmission derailleur a remarkably strong attachment, clamping around both sides of the frame itself and eliminating the need for a hanger. This super strong connection eliminates variance and improper adjustment across frame designs. It also eliminates hanger failures and allows the derailleur to rotate backward in the case of an impact.
The best mechanical shift under load. Period.
Even with the added watts of E-MTB, the X-Sync tooth profile and 44 specific shifting points on Eagle Transmission cassettes allow you to shift with unstoppable precision under all the power you can muster. It’s the best mechanical shift performance under load there is. It’s not even a contest.
The world’s easiest mechanical setup.
Eagle Transmission gives you an unbelievably simply setup procedure that will blow your mind the first time you do it. Just prepare, hang, and tighten. Installing a mechanical Eagle Transmission? The process is shared between Eagle 90 and 70, with one additional step to route and tension a standard shift cable. Either way, simply follow the steps and you’re ready to rip.
Mechanical Shifters
Eagle Transmission mechanical shifters combine decades of ergonomic refinement, delivering a positive mechanical shift. A new architecture routes cables parallel to the bar for pairing perfectly with stealth routed SRAM brakes. For riders who appreciate the satisfying tactility of the mechanical shift, this is love at first click.
Speaking of clicks, Eagle Mechanical Transmission offers two shifter variants: Single-click shifters for mandatory usage with E-MTBs, and double-click shifters for human powered bikes. Shifter clicks are optimised to maintain best shift under load shift quality.
The cleanest mechanical cockpit.
To complete the cockpit, we sought to design a mechanical dropper lever that not only matched our Stealth brakes and Transmission shifters but offered optimised performance as well. Compatible with most cable actuated dropper posts, our dropper lever features ergonomics and routing based on mechanical Transmission shifting. Clean paddles, clean cables. Left and right.
Tough, reliable, game-changing rebuildability.
The Eagle 90 derailleur is so durable that you’ll hopefully never need to rebuild it. But if it becomes necessary, it’s the most rebuildable derailleur ever. And all it takes is minutes to rebuild it, with three basic tools. Rebuild kits and skid plates can be found easily. All to help keep your Eagle 90 derailleur on the trails for a lifetime.
B-Knuckle replacement kit, P-Knuckle replacement kit, Skid plate, outer and inner link replacement kit, Cage and damper assembly kit, Cage without damper replacement kit, Inner Cage replacement kit, Pulley replacement kit, Bushing replacement kit, Cable & housing replacement kit.
Crank it up. Or down.
Eagle 90 cranksets unique design is forged from aluminium for robustness and dependability, at arm lengths in 5mm increments from 175mm to 155mm, while E-MTB crank assemblies are offered down to 150mm. Like the feel of spinning big circles? Choose longer crankarms. Want to minimise pedal strikes on a bike with a low-slung BB, or change up your balance, choose from new shorter crank arm options.
Upgrade with 90. Start with 70.
Whether upgrading your trusted ride or building your dream bike from the frame up, there’s an Eagle 90 Transmission Groupset box to deliver the dream and match your vision. While Eagle 70 Transmission has a more OE-specific focus but still maintains aftermarket availability as individual components.
T-Type
Welcome to the expanded Eagle Transmission ecosystem of connected components. If it’s a T-Type component, it’s compatible with all other Eagle Transmission T-Type parts, whether AXS or Mechanical. Giving you the ultimate freedom to mix and match. Keep it T-Type, and let the dream builds fly.
