Do SRAM derailleurs have a clutch?

Neither SRAM nor Campagnolo have a clutched rear derailleur for two-chainring systems, although the former is rumored to be adding one to its upcoming Red eTap flagship groupset for 2019.

Which SRAM derailleur has a clutch?

Type 2 mech
Following intense speculation, SRAM have unveiled a clutch-equipped rear derailleur to rival Shimano’s XTR Shadow Plus design. The Type 2 mech, which will be available in both X0 and X9 guise, has a clever mechanism inside its otherwise-standard lower knuckle that combats excess chain movement on rough terrain.

Does the SRAM SX Eagle derailleur have a clutch?

The SX Eagle rear derailleur looks much like other SRAM X-Horozon 1x derailleurs, but like the cheaper drop bar versions, it uses a more conventional cable entry point vs. the NX’s pulley. The steel cage derailleur still gets a clutch, narrow-wide lower X-Sync pulley, and a cage lock to work with up to 50T cassettes.

How does SRAM derailleur clutch work?

Inside the Type 2 cage pivot, SRAM uses a one-way roller bearing clutch—it rotates freely in one direction but not the other. This bearing sits inside a conical nylon bush and the knocking noise emanates from this area.

Does SRAM NX Eagle have a clutch?

The larger, 14-tooth X-SYNC™ lower pulley easily facilitates 11- to 50- and 10- to 50-tooth cassette capacity, and also adds to NX Eagle’s overall smooth-pedaling feel. The Type-3 ROLLER BEARING CLUTCH™ provides quiet, consistent performance and durability.

Should the clutch on a derailleur be on or off?

Installation is simple, the only added complication being that you must switch the clutch mechanism to the ‘off” position before tuning your gears. With the clutch off, the lower arm is free to move unrestricted, making it easier to set your cable tension etc.
