Engineered as part of SRAM’s groundbreaking Eagle Transmission drivetrain system, the SRAM Eagle T-Type Rear Derailleur represents a fundamental redesign of how mountain bike shifting works. Built for modern 1x drivetrains, this derailleur integrates directly with the frame using SRAM’s hangerless Full Mount interface, delivering exceptional strength, alignment accuracy and shifting precision even under heavy load.
Unlike traditional derailleurs that rely on a replaceable hanger, the T-Type derailleur mounts around the rear axle on frames with a UDH (Universal Derailleur Hanger) interface. This design creates a far stronger connection between the derailleur and frame, helping improve durability, drivetrain alignment and overall shift performance when riding aggressive trails or technical terrain.
The derailleur works as part of the SRAM Eagle Transmission ecosystem, meaning every T-Type component is designed to work seamlessly together for precise electronic shifting and long-term reliability. Riders benefit from smoother gear changes under load and improved drivetrain stability during hard pedalling, climbing and descending.
A compact, tucked-in profile helps protect the derailleur from trail impacts, while features such as replaceable protection plates and an overload clutch help manage sudden impacts and maintain drivetrain integrity.
Designed for modern 12-speed Eagle drivetrains with up to a 52-tooth cassette, the SRAM Eagle T-Type Rear Derailleur is built for riders who demand the highest level of shifting performance, durability and integration in today’s advanced mountain bike drivetrains.
