No, they do not. The SRAM RED eTap AXS rear derailleur’s Orbit fluid clutch mechanism makes it unnecessary, as the derailleur can be easily pulled back by hand to clear the cassette when the wheel is removed making rear wheel changes easy. On tarmac or gravel, 1x or 2x, RED eTap AXS gives a quiet, secure, and smooth ride. Thanks to an ultra-lightweight fluid damper and a unique Flattop chain, you’ll ride more confidently and efficiently than ever—no matter the terrain.
