The SRAM GX 2x11 rear derailleur brings reliable, precise shifting to mid-range MTB builds — engineered for the demands of trail riding with a cage and parallelogram geometry that holds indexing consistently under load. GX hits the point where performance and value genuinely overlap for riders who want quality shifting without top-tier pricing.

Highlights

  • 11-speed MTB rear derailleur for 2x drivetrain builds
  • X-ACTUATION cable pull ratio for precise, consistent indexing
  • Compatible with SRAM GX shifters and 11-speed cassettes
  • Trail-capable cage geometry for reliable shifting under varied load
  • Mid-cage option available for wider cassette range

X-ACTUATION

SRAM's X-ACTUATION cable pull geometry calibrates the derailleur's movement per millimetre of cable travel — so each click of the shifter moves the chain exactly one sprocket, from the largest cog to the smallest. The result is consistent indexing across the whole cassette range without constant barrel adjuster tweaking.

Fit and compatibility

11-speed MTB rear derailleur for 2x builds. Compatible with SRAM GX 2x11 shifters. Confirm maximum cog size and cage length for your cassette range before ordering.
