SRAM Apex1 Long Cage 11-speed Rear Derailleur - Black

With the SRAM Apex 1 you can experience a new simplicity on your road bike, gravelbike or trekking bike. And at an unbeatable low price. With just one gear lever, you do not need to worry about the right gear combination. You can simply concentrate on driving and the 11 gears intuitively. When combined with the APEX 1 11-42 cassette, the 1-compartment drive is just as versatile as a 2-compartment drive with an 11-28 cassette. Thus the steepest angle with the Apex 1 group are no problem either.
Equipped with all the features of the SRAM Force 1 switch, the APEX 1 offers top performance at a low price for 1x10 and 1x11 drives.

• Roller Bearing Clutch: The unique Roller Bearing Clutch ensures a consistently high chain tension and a secure chain line even without chain guide.
  Exact Actuation: To enable quick and precise switching operations, SRAM uses the proven 1: 1 ratio of Bowden cable movement to derailleur deflection.
  
• X-HORIZON: The parallelogram design of the derailleur restricts all shifting movements to the horizontal axle . This reduces the force required for switching and the switching process is much more precise. The strong offset of the upper shifting wheel ensures constant chain spacing across all gears.
  
• CAGE LOCK: The Cage Lock technology allows the derailleur to be locked in an extended position to simplify the assembly of the rear wheel or chain.
