Product Information

Full details

The SRAM XG-1190 Cassette is a high-performance 11-speed drivetrain component designed for serious cyclists who demand precision shifting, minimal weight, and a silent ride. It is ideal for road racers and performance enthusiasts using SRAM RED eTap or compatible 11-speed groupsets. While it offers industry-leading stiffness and noise reduction, the premium construction requires careful handling during installation to maintain its advanced heat-treated finish.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Is this cassette compatible with non-SRAM 11-speed chains?

While it is designed for maximum performance with SRAM RED chains, it is generally compatible with standard 11-speed road chains.

What is the primary benefit of the hollow dome design?

The hollow dome design reduces overall weight while maintaining extreme stiffness, which prevents energy loss during high-wattage pedaling.

Can I replace individual cogs on the XG-1190?

No, the XG-1190 is a single-piece construction (or integrated structure), meaning individual cogs cannot be replaced; the entire cassette must be replaced when worn.

Do I need a special tool to install this?

You need a standard cassette lockring tool and a chain whip to properly secure and remove the unit.

How often should I clean the StealthRings?

Clean them whenever you perform a deep clean of your drivetrain, ensuring you do not use harsh chemicals that could degrade the rubber.

Troubleshooting

Excessive noise during shifting

Ensure your rear derailleur hanger is aligned and check that the StealthRing elastomers are seated correctly between the cogs.

Cassette feels loose on the wheel

Verify that the lockring is tightened to the manufacturer's specified torque and ensure the correct spacers are installed on the freehub body if required.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extremely lightweight construction
  • Near-silent operation due to StealthRing technology
  • High stiffness for efficient power transfer
  • Excellent shifting precision with compatible derailleurs

Cons

  • Premium price point reflecting high-end materials
  • Requires specific tool for precise installation
  • Replacement parts can be difficult to source individually

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility is broad across the SRAM ecosystem, including RED eTap, RED, Force, Rival, and Apex 11-speed systems. To ensure longevity, always install the cassette using a proper torque-rated lockring tool. Avoid using caustic degreasers that may degrade the specialized StealthRing elastomers. Regular maintenance should involve cleaning the cogs with a mild bike-safe solvent and a soft-bristled brush, followed by a light application of high-quality drivetrain lubricant. Periodically inspect the lockring tension to prevent the cassette from developing play on the freehub body.
