Wireless Shifting - SRAM GX AXS Review - Is it worth it?

We have passed this bike around, driven it across the PNW in terrible weather, ridden it through moondust, mud and snow in the name of this SRAM GX AXS Review. Without a doubt the SRAM GX AXS wireless upgrade kit has been one of the coolest bits of gear we’ve tested in 2021. No matter who’s on board or what we’re doing to the bike, the electronic SRAM GX AXS stuff just works. The durability, performance and simplicity of use all make this stuff easy to recommend, if you’re willing to drop the coin. The GX AXS derailleur is just as water and dust proof as the higher end X01 and XX1 units, we don’t think it shifted any slower than those units and still held up to impacts and abuse thanks to SRAM’s Overload impact technology. As long as your derailleur hanger is straight, your chain isn’t bent and you’ve got all the teeth on your cassette in good shape, this system will shift without worry mile after mile. Battery life was pretty solid on this unit and we’re still running the original battery in the shifter. Co
