The Eagle S500 AXS derailleur brings SRAM’s wireless Eagle AXS shifting to more mountain bikes. It sets up wirelessly, talks to any other AXS component, and protects itself in a crash with an Overload Clutch.

Highlights

  • Wireless AXS, 12-speed Eagle
  • For 10-50T and 10-52T Eagle cassettes
  • Overload Clutch disengages the motor on impact, then returns to position
  • Type 3 cage damper for chain retention and quiet descents
  • Robust aluminium cage
  • Water and dust-proof system

Smart protection

If the derailleur takes a hit, the Overload Clutch lets the motor gearbox disengage so the derailleur can move, then it returns to its position. The aluminium cage is built to take knocks.

Compatibility and fit

Part of SRAM’s Eagle drivetrain family, for 12-speed Eagle chains and 50T or 52T Eagle cassettes, not T-Type Transmission. SRAM lists MTB hanger and UDH mounting. Battery sold separately; pair with an AXS controller such as the Pod.

This SRAM component is covered by SRAM’s warranty against defects in materials and workmanship; terms are set by SRAM. Wear and service items (chains, cassettes, brake pads, rotors, tape and seals) are normal maintenance parts.

Tune Cycles can supply, fit and set up SRAM components and lodge any warranty assessment on your behalf — book at tunecycles.com.au/book.
