your emotor is programmed from factory as either manual shifting or electronic. So if you dont have the shimano computer adaptor and cables, and software, you cannot program your manual motor to accept electronic shifting. You will get an error code and bike wont even power up. And no bike shop will do said programming because its a liability. Most people just get the hacking software, and shimano computer adaptor and reprogram the bike themselves
????? Sram axs whether original or Transmission are completely independent systems......nothing in the motor determines or affects how gear shifting is achieved...... whether cable or electronic.

The difference being a T type chain rollers are a larger diameter than on an Eagle chain but the pitch is the same.....so only the T type chain checkers will be accurate on a T type chain
and there is no official chain gauge from sram, only one for eagle and below. go figure why

--> you are supposed to run the system to the ground

apart from Park tool CC4.2, or Pedros chain Checker, or SRAM's CHTL8058000

these measure the distance between the backside of 2 rollers rather than between 2 rollers...hence the thickness of the rollers makes no difference to its measurement.

Just changed rear brakes and chain both got about 550 miles. Not great but the amount of grit it's not surprising. Changed end of August I took note for once.

I had a GX t type chain break into 3 pieces after 150 miles and a GX cassette creak like my old knees in the morning after 225, probably due to loose or loosening pins. Upgrading both to XO and hoping for a better result. The torque emtbs create is so much higher, these are the few parts that actually deserve emtb specific ones.

I am now riding Transmission XX 3000 kilometers and everything looks like new. Even the chain is still within tolerance, despite a lot of mud and rough terrain. At the time, it was an experiment for me to take the most expensive components for a change. But when I look at it now, it actually seems to be worth it.
