FAQ

Does my frame need a UDH for the Force XPLR AXS derailleur?

Yes. The Force XPLR AXS derailleur attaches to the UDH interface and centers on the rear axle, so the frame has to be built to the Universal Derailleur Hanger standard. A frame with a conventional bolt-on hanger will not accept it.

What cassette and chain does the Force XPLR AXS derailleur require?

It is 1x specific and designed for the XPLR 10-46T 13-speed cassette running a Road Flattop chain. It will not work with a 2x setup, and it is not compatible with standard 12-speed road cassettes.

Which crankset should I run with the Force XPLR AXS derailleur?

SRAM specifies XPLR cranks for frames with chainstays of 415mm and longer, and road cranks for frames at 414mm and below. Measure your chainstay length before choosing, because the crank determines the chainline and the wrong choice affects shifting across the cassette.

Are there limit screws to adjust on the Force XPLR AXS derailleur?

No. Setup uses no adjustment screws. Because the derailleur mounts to the axle and takes its alignment from the frame, the position is set by the mount and the remaining setup is the standard AXS pairing procedure.

Does the Force XPLR AXS derailleur come with a battery?

No. The AXS battery is sold separately. If you already run AXS you can move a battery between components, but a first AXS build needs one added to the order.

Best For

Gravel riders on UDH-equipped frames building a 13-speed 1x XPLR drivetrain, particularly anyone who travels with the bike or rides terrain rough enough that a bent hanger has ended a day before.
