Product Information

Full details

The SRAM XX1 Jockey Wheels are designed for professional racers and dedicated mountain bikers looking to maintain the peak performance of their 11-speed drivetrain systems. By utilizing BlackBox Ceramic hybrid bearings, these pulleys significantly reduce drivetrain friction for a smoother pedaling feel; however, they are highly specialized components restricted strictly to the SRAM XX1 11-speed ecosystem, making them incompatible with 12-speed or non-SRAM groupsets.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Are these compatible with SRAM GX or NX 11-speed?

No, these are specifically engineered for the high-performance SRAM XX1 11-speed derailleur cage architecture.

Can I use these on a 12-speed Eagle drivetrain?

No, the tooth profile and bearing spacing are designed for 11-speed chains and will not function correctly with 12-speed Eagle components.

How often should I clean the ceramic bearings?

Clean them whenever you perform a full drivetrain deep clean, or after riding in extremely wet and muddy conditions.

Do these wheels come as a pair?

Yes, the product includes the necessary pulleys for both the upper and lower positions of the rear derailleur cage.

Do I need special grease for the ceramic bearings?

Use a light, low-viscosity synthetic lubricant specifically designed for ceramic bicycle bearings to prevent gumming up the internal race.

Troubleshooting

Increased noise during shifting

Check if the pulley orientation is correct according to the rotation arrows and ensure the cage bolts are tightened to the manufacturer's torque specification.

Chain skipping after installation

Verify that the chain is correctly routed through the cage plates and that the derailleur hanger is not bent.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Significantly reduced friction due to ceramic bearings
  • Superior chain retention with X-Sync design
  • High-end construction quality for professional performance
  • Direct fit for specific 11-speed XX1 setups

Cons

  • Not compatible with SRAM Eagle 12-speed systems
  • Higher price point compared to standard steel-bearing pulleys
  • Requires specific tools for derailleur cage disassembly

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To install these jockey wheels, ensure your drivetrain is shifted into the smallest cog to reduce chain tension. Use a T25 Torx driver to remove the derailleur cage bolts, swap the old pulleys for the new ones, and ensure the orientation matches the rotation arrows marked on the jockey wheels. Note that these are specifically for the 11-speed SRAM XX1 derailleur and are not backwards or forwards compatible with other series. To maintain performance, clean the pulleys periodically with a degreaser and apply a light, high-quality bike lubricant to the bearings after washing your bike to ensure the ceramic surfaces remain free of debris.
