When SRAM first introduced the XX1 it was met with scepticism. But what was first looked at as weird has turned out to work, so well that SRAM has decided to expand on that idea and offer the 1×11 drivetrain in cheaper X0 form.<\/p>\n

The recent big news out of the US was the launch of SRAM\u2019s 1×11 drivetrain in the ever-popular, and cheaper X0 guise. The XX1 has been the go to drivetrain of top riders, or at least those with a choice, pretty much since its inception and with the introduction of the X0, you\u2019ll be more readily able to run the same technology too. SRAM have cut costs on coatings and gone for heavier materials, but the technology is the same, and they say the X01 set-up should last longer too. But before you get too excited, a little birdy in the industry estimates that the X01 will only be around 10% cheaper, so you can still expect to pay well over 10K.<\/p>\n

Get involved in our Full Sus debate and tell us what you think about the single chainring drivetrains \u2013 are they too expensive, a trick to get you off your old Shimano 3×10 or the only way forward.<\/p>\n
