Available October 2026.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA build kit is an argument about priorities. This one is short - because they nailed it. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eSRAM's X0 Eagle Transmission does away with the derailleur hanger altogether. The mech bolts through the rear axle and locates off the frame itself — which is why it shifts cleanly under full load rather than asking you to soft-pedal and hope, and why a hard strike usually ends with the derailleur still on the bike. 10–52t, 520% range, an overload clutch and replaceable armour on the knuckle and outer link. No limit screws. No B-gap. No ritual. Wireless, so there's no cable to go stiff and vague by February.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eWhich matters more here than it would elsewhere. The MT's switching link holds anti-squat high around sag — the bike actively wants you pedalling into terrain where you'd normally freewheel and brace. A drivetrain that shifts under that load isn't a luxury on this frame. It's the component that lets the suspension do the thing it was built to do.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eThe rest of the build follows the same logic: Fox, SRAM and DT Swiss -  chosen because they're what you'd fit anyway, and specified so you don't have to. \u003cem\u003e(Yeti's equivalent LT build runs Fox Factory, Maven Silver brakes and DT Swiss carbon — expect the MT to sit in the same register.)\u003c\/em\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eNothing on it to upgrade.

A derailleur that mounts through the axle survives things a hanger doesn't. And on a bike that asks you to keep pedalling through the rough — which the MT does, constantly — shifting under load stops being a spec-sheet line and becomes the reason you clear the climb.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp dir=\"ltr\"\u003eDemo bikes in this build.
