What is the difference between the SRAM X5 and X7?
X5 is a whole trail worthy 10-speed drivetrain but the rear mech doesn’t have a clutch, this is likely to be fitted to entry-level hardtails and comes in a 2x or a 3x configuration. X7 is also a 10-speed drivetrain (2x or 3x) but this one gets SRAM’s Roller Bearing Clutch on the rear mech to stop that chain dropping off.
How much does SRAM X5 cost?
