Possibly.

I thought they were rolling it out with newer shifters but possibly not.

Just ordered it from r2bike in Germany, its available as a "upgrade" or ships on the new shifters. Also available from Bike24 but unavailable from a large number of online retailers.

Not sure how available it will be in the UK.

Notmyrealname, ping me a message as I’ve got one you can have for a tenner. Tried it and didn’t like it.

But I was surprised that they seemingly didn’t have any stock to send. I suppose the pandemic and brexit are obviously causing supply issues for many other brands.

The warranty dept runs from the distributor stock, which is low and will remain low for some time to come.

Ah OK thanks for the info, do you work at sram?

I've been running a normal post and surprisingly haven't missed the dropper since all my local riding is mini-dh type runs with push up tracks.

But once things open back up it would be good to have it for normal riding.

Have you tried the existing shifter? If not, give it a bash before ordering the new rocker as it might work well for you as it is currently. (Haven't read the whole thread to see if you have already posted about this, if so, ignore my laziness)

Well i've just installed GX Axs on my MTB and i cant for the life of me get all the gears dialled in correctly.
I got it so the chain just drops off top ring, then the 4th ring from bottom rasps badly and occasionally jumps.
I sort that out and then the chain refuses to drop off large ring. I'm going round in circles. Its driving mr nuts.
Running and Sram NX cassette and chain

Sounds like a bent mech hanger maybe...

@widge34 - got the b-tension screw adjusted properly? The mech spacing from cassette is really vital on eagle mechs...

That's a bent hanger or a bent frame. My axs did the same until I put a new hanger on and it was instantly perfect. My hanger didn't look bent on first inspection, but when compared to a new hanger there was a very slight twist in it. The bent hanger also worked fine with the previous shimano 12 speed mech.
