It's packing significant implications for both SRAM and its sponsored teams.

This new package is designed to make upgrading from mechanical to wireless as simple as possible; the GX Eagle AXS Transmission Upgrade Kit includes an AXS-enabled derailleur body, AXS Battery, and AXS Pod Controller.

KMC's upcoming 12-speed flattop chain provides an alternative for SRAM users, enhancing choices in the market with new features and design.

The GX drivetrain is often taken for granted and is seen as the entry-level 12-speed mechanical MTB group from SRAM. Still, if you've spent much time on NX or SX-level Eagle drivetrains, you'll quickly realize that GX is a tier above. It has stiffer mechanics, crisper shifting, and a nicer feeling in the hand.

Team manager Sven Nys expressed frustration over material issues, specifically mentioning that broken chains prevented riders like Arthur Van Den Boer from contending for medals. He stated, 'We started the day badly with a lot of material problems,' highlighting how this impacted their overall performance and potential medal count.
