SRAM XG-1295 Eagle Cassette

The SRAM XG-1295, often referred to as the X01 Eagle cassette, is a high-performance bicycle drivetrain component designed for mountain biking. It is a hallmark of precision engineering, featuring a unique stamped steel architecture for the lower gears and an aluminum 50- or 52-tooth cog for weight savings.

SRAM was founded in Chicago, Illinois, in 1987 and revolutionized the industry with the introduction of Grip Shift. While the brand maintains its design and engineering headquarters in the United States, its manufacturing is primarily concentrated in Taiwan, which is the global hub for high-end bicycle component production. SRAM remains a privately held company under the leadership of its founders and institutional investors, staying independent from the larger conglomerates that dominate the cycling industry.
