The SRAM XX1 Eagle Boost Crankset
Real champions are always looking for a performance advantage - an unconditional search for material that is lighter, stiffer and more stable. To get the best drive ever, SRAM has started with a completely redesigned crankset: their all-new XX1 Eagle ™ crankset is the lightest, stiffest and most stable on the market. A special hollow-core design, combined with their unique CARBON TUNED ™ lay-up, has enabled us to build a lightweight and ultra-efficient crank that's ideal for the high performance and clean driving style of cross-country riders , Combined with one of the new Direct Mount Eagle ™ chainrings and an integral part of our Eagle ™ drives, the new XX1 Eagle ™ crankset allows you to put even more energy into each of your rides.
Applied technologies
In this chapter, we explain the technologies that the manufacturer uses for this product.
Eagle
Eagle technology represents our newest 1x drive technology. Eagle is a lighter, simpler, more durable and easier-to-use drive. Eagle has brand new 1x components that provide even greater strength and performance while offering a significant weight advantage over other drive solutions. The Eagle technology also has an extended transmission range of 500% and is similar to 2x11 drives.
DUB
The ratio as here the crankshaft and the bearings are dimensioned, is the core of the DUB technology. Here rigidity and durability meet and complement each other. SRAM just thought a little further and made it even easier - thanks to a better integration of all components such as chainring, crank, crankshaft and the bottom bracket. Only this approach, seeing the drive as an overall system, allows for better drive performance.
Boost
Boost is a new wheel and drive specification that offers improved frame geometry with shorter chainstays, wider and harder suspension, more sprocket options, more headroom for wider tires and increased stiffness and ruggedness of the wheel.
Carbon tuned
Strength and stiffness, where you need it, weight where you want it. The SRAM design with the exclusive carbon sheathing increases the thickness and rigidity in areas with particularly high load. The tapering, tiered carbon architecture ensures maximum weight savings without sacrificing strength.
X-Sync2
X-Sync2 EAGLE is the latest evolution of SRAM's X-Sync technology. The tooth profile of the chainring increases chain tension and pedaling efficiency. Sprocket life is higher as X-Sync Eagle technology reduces friction and contamination.
