MTB Groupsets

Upgrade your mountain bike's drivetrain with a complete groupset , designed to handle the demands of even the most technical trails. A mountain bike groupset typically includes a crankset, cassette, chain, rear derailleur, front derailleur (for double or triple drivetrains), shifters, and sometimes brakes. Find the perfect MTB groupset for your riding style and enjoy smooth, precise, and reliable shifting.

Choose the right mountain bike group according to your practice

  • Cross-Country (XC) : Light and efficient, choose a 1x12 speed group like the Shimano XTR or the SRAM XX1 Eagle .
  • Trail & All-Mountain : A good compromise between robustness and lightness, the Shimano XT and SRAM GX Eagle groups are perfect.
  • Enduro & Downhill (DH) : Resistance and reliability above all, with groups like the SRAM X01 Eagle or the Shimano Saint .

Mechanical or electronic transmission?

Mechanical drivetrains remain the most popular choice due to their reliability and affordability. However, electronic groupsets like the SRAM AXS or Shimano Di2 offer instant gear changes and unparalleled precision.

The new SRAM Transmission T-Type groups

SRAM T-Type groupsets revolutionize mountain bike drivetrains with a direct-mount system that eliminates the need for a traditional derailleur hanger. Stronger and more precise, this concept is optimized for 12-speed bikes.

  • SRAM XX SL T-Type : Ultra-light, designed for XC competition.
  • SRAM XX T-Type : A balance between lightness and strength for trail and enduro.
  • SRAM X0 T-Type : Ideal for committed practices with an excellent performance/durability ratio.
  • SRAM GX T-Type : The most accessible of the range, offering the advantages of the T-Type drivetrain at a more affordable price.

The best mountain bike groupsets on the market

  • Shimano Deore, SLX, XT, XTR : A progression from affordable high-end to competition level.
  • SRAM SX, NX, GX, X01, XX1 Eagle : 12-speed groupsets with wide gearing and excellent durability.
  • SRAM T-Type Drivetrain : Innovative technology for more precise and durable shifting.
  • Shimano Saint & SRAM X01 DH : Designed for downhill riding with extreme durability.

Single or double chainring?

Most modern groupsets favor single-chainring (1x12 speeds), offering simplicity and lightness. However, some mountain bikers still prefer double-chainring drivetrains for a wider range of gears.

Choose your mountain bike group based on your discipline and benefit from high-performance equipment to push your limits on the trails.
