With the Apex AXS disc brake system, the formidable hydraulic brake caliper and intuitive wireless shifting come together to create an unparalleled unit at the highest echelon. When it comes to slowing down, the eTap® brake/shift lever provides controlled modulation, while the ability to adjust grip width and the refined grip body shape ensure optimal comfort.
In numerous disciplines, a single chainring suffices. The Apex 1 crankset, paired with the expansive range of the PG-1231 cassette, delivers the perfect gear ratio for any adventure. Featuring the sleek and sturdy X-SYNC™ chainring for impeccable chain management, and the PowerGlide II cassette offering the gear range typically found in a 2-speed drivetrain but within a 1x12-speed shifting system.
Whether on-road or off, the Apex XPLR rear derailleur is designed for flawless chain retention with its specialised spring clutch. Additionally, the Flattop™ construction of the Apex chain not only makes it lighter and narrower but also stronger and more durable. The outcome is not just swifter and more precise shifting but also a quieter chain operation.
