SRAM Force D1 XPLR XG-1271 12-Speed Cassette
The SRAM Force D1 XPLR XG-1271 12-Speed Cassette delivers versatile gearing for mixed terrain riding. Designed for SRAM 12-speed XPLR drivetrains, it uses a 10-44T range to provide a wide 440% gear spread. In addition, each cog features carefully shaped shift ramps that maintain smooth reliable shifts even under load. The cassette pairs with SRAM XPLR rear derailleurs and SRAM Flattop chains for optimal performance. It mounts to SRAM XDR freehub bodies, which gives riders broad wheel compatibility.
