Frequently Asked Questions
What fits with SRAM Eagle 90 Transmission Groupset?
SRAM Eagle 90 Transmission Groupset is compatible with wheels, frames that match its technical standards. Most importantly, it requires matching 12-speed components.
Can I use a higher or lower speed chain with SRAM Eagle 90 Transmission Groupset?
No, SRAM Eagle 90 Transmission Groupset requires a 12-speed chain. Chains for different speeds have different external widths and internal profiles, which will cause poor shifting or mechanical interference.
Does this SRAM Eagle 90 Transmission Groupset work with electronic shifting like Di2 or AXS?
No, this is a mechanical cable-actuated component. Electronic systems use internal motors and proprietary signals that are physically and electrically incompatible with mechanical components.
Is SRAM Eagle 90 Transmission Groupset compatible with rim brakes?
No, SRAM Eagle 90 Transmission Groupset is designed specifically for disc systems. The mounting standards and architectural requirements for disc brakes are completely different and cannot be mixed.
Can I mix SRAM Eagle 90 Transmission Groupset with Road components?
While some mechanical standards (like cassette spacing at certain speeds) may overlap, SRAM Eagle 90 Transmission Groupset is optimized for MTB use. Mixing with Road parts often fails due to differing pull ratios and chainlines.
