Overview & Technology

Genuine SRAM XX SL T-Type Cage Assembly (Part #11.7518.104.010 / SRAM Model ID RD-SPP-A0) is the complete replacement cage kit for the XX SL T-Type Eagle AXS rear derailleur. This kit includes the outer and inner cage plates, damper and both upper and lower pulleys β€” everything needed to restore factory performance after wear or damage. Designed for elite-level mountain bikes, the assembly prioritizes low weight, precise chain control and long-lasting bearing performance. The cage combines a refined carbon-fiber outer plate with a machined aluminum inner plate, a vibration-damping insert and sealed pulley cartridges to deliver the crisp, quiet feel expected from SRAM's XX SL line.

Key Features & Construction

Precision materials and purposeful design: the outer cage employs high-modulus carbon fiber for stiffness and weight savings, while the inner cage is machined from heat-treated aluminum alloy for impact resistance and alignment stability. The included damper reduces chain slap on rough terrain and helps maintain chain retention when in the largest cogs. The pulleys are pre-assembled with high-quality sealed bearings and low-friction bushings designed for long service intervals. Heat-treated axle hardware and corrosion-resistant coatings ensure consistent shifting and reliability in variable weather conditions.

Fit, Compatibility & Installation

This cage assembly is a direct-fit replacement for the SRAM XX SL T-Type Eagle AXS rear derailleur family and is intended to work with SRAM AXS drivetrains. It uses the factory mounting points and hardware, so no modification to the derailleur body or frame is required. Installation is straightforward for any mechanic comfortable with drivetrain service: remove the derailleur from the hanger, split the old cage assembly at the pivot, swap in the new cage, torque hardware to SRAM’s specified values and check B-gap and AXS calibration. Shipping dimensions are compact (8.5" x 2.25" x 6") and the kit weighs approximately 0.6 lb.

Who This Is For

This replacement cage assembly is aimed at mountain riders and mechanics who run top-tier SRAM AXS Eagle systems and want to maintain peak shifting performance. It's essential for racers, race-season mechanics and riders who value minimal weight without sacrificing durability. If your derailleur has been crashed or if pulley bearings and the damper have reached end-of-life, this full replacement kit restores factory geometry and performance faster and more reliably than piecing together separate parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this cage assembly compatible with other SRAM derailleurs?

The XX SL T-Type cage assembly is designed specifically for the SRAM XX SL T-Type Eagle AXS derailleur series. While some SRAM cage parts share similarities across lines, this kit is a direct-fit for the T-Type model and is recommended only for that derailleur to guarantee correct geometry and shifting performance.

Can I replace just the pulleys instead of the whole cage?

Yes β€” pulleys are serviceable components and can often be replaced separately. However, this kit provides a full factory cage assembly (outer & inner plates, damper and pulleys), which is ideal if the existing cage is bent, cracked or if you want a complete refresh of wear items in one install.

What tools and torque settings are required for installation?

Installation requires basic bike tools including 4mm/5mm hex keys and a torque wrench for final hardware torque. Follow SRAM’s published torque specs for cage mounting hardware and pulley axles to avoid over-tightening. If unsure, have an experienced mechanic perform the swap.

How often should I service the pulleys and damper?

Frequency depends on riding conditions: check pulleys every 500–1,000 km for play or roughness and replace seals/bearings as needed. The damper should be inspected if you hear unusual noise or notice increased chain slap; many riders refresh these components annually or after a heavy season.

Is the kit compatible with 12-speed Eagle cassettes and chains?

Yes β€” this cage assembly is built to work with SRAM's Eagle 12-speed AXS drivetrains and is engineered to maintain chain wrap and tension across the entire 12-speed range when installed on the appropriate XX SL T-Type derailleur body.

Buying Guide

When replacing parts on high-end AXS derailleurs, opt for genuine factory kits like the SRAM XX SL T-Type Cage Assembly to preserve geometry, weight targets and warranty coverage. Buying the complete cage assembly saves time and ensures pulleys, damper and plates are spec-matched. Check compatibility with your derailleur model and confirm hanger alignment before ordering. If your cage is bent or pulleys are noisy, a full kit is usually the most reliable and cost-effective repair compared to piecing together individual components.
