FAQs
How do I charge the AXS battery?
The AXS battery can be charged using the dedicated SRAM AXS charger. Remove the battery from the derailleur and connect it to the charger.
What is the optimal way to use the eTap shift logic?
The left shifter lever controls shifting to harder gears (smaller cogs), and the right shifter lever controls shifting to easier gears (larger cogs). It's designed for intuitive, single-finger operation.
Can I use this brake set with mechanical shifting components?
No, this is an electronic shifting system and requires compatible SRAM AXS electronic components.
How often should I bleed the hydraulic brakes?
Brake bleeding frequency depends on usage and environmental conditions, but typically once a year or if you notice a spongy lever feel is recommended.
What is the purpose of the AXS app?
The SRAM AXS app allows you to check battery status, update firmware, customize shift button functions, and set gear limits.
Is this a complete brake set?
Yes, this is a front right connected hydraulic disc brake set, which typically includes the shifter/brake lever, caliper, and pre-bled hose.
Troubleshooting
Brake lever feels spongy
The brake system may need to be bled to remove air. Follow the SRAM hydraulic brake bleeding procedure.
Shifting is inconsistent or slow
Ensure the AXS battery is charged. Check for any obstructions in the derailleur's movement. Re-pair the shifter and derailleur using the AXS app or pairing buttons. Verify chain and cassette wear.
AXS system not connecting
Check AXS battery charge. Ensure the battery is correctly installed. Try re-pairing the components via the AXS app or by pressing the AXS buttons on each component.
Brakes are noisy
Clean rotors with isopropyl alcohol. Inspect brake pads for contamination or wear. Ensure rotor and caliper alignment.
