We smashed SRAM Transmission X0 with the equivalent momentum of a hypersonic baseball, we tried to drown it underwater, and we sent it to outer space. It survived it all. Now, SRAM has released the GX version of this mountain bike drivetrain, so we're checking out what they've changed so you can decide if this $1,099 drivetrain is right for your ride.

*Disclaimer:
To best describe the strength of the various derailleurs we tested, we opted to compare the momentum of our pendulum to that of other "real world" moving objects (however likely/unlikely they may be). We chose to look at momentum carried by the pendulum, as opposed to the actual force delivered to the derailleur, because we do not have the tools and equipment needed to measure that force. If Dan was unclear at any time and implied that the impact force was identical to that of a hypersonic baseball, as opposed to the momentum of the pendulum being equivalent to that of a hypersonic baseball, it is only because his physics education does not exceed that of a college physics 101 class. If James made any calculation errors in the video, it is only because he was in the middle of finals week in his physics undergraduate degree during the filming of the video, and not because he didn't take every possible measure to ensure the accuracy and clarity of his comparisons, up to and including checking his methods with his classical mechanics professor.

Major thanks to Blake Hansen (@Handsblakesen ) for loaning us her Specialized Stumpjumper EVO, equipped with SRAM Transmission GX, to make this video.
