SRAM Force AXS XG-1270 D1 Cassette - 12 Speed | 10-28t
What sets the SRAM Force AXS XG-1270 D1 Cassette apart from the competition?
The SRAM Force AXS XG-1270 D1 cassette was built around the X-Range gearing philosophy — start with a 10-tooth small cog and work outward with tight, progressive ratio jumps rather than padding the small-cog end with teeth you never use. At 10-28t, this cassette delivers at least five one-tooth jumps between sprockets, which is what makes it feel so much smoother and more intuitive to shift than the 11-speed cassettes it replaced. The mini cluster construction bonds multiple sprockets together to reduce weight while increasing structural rigidity, and the whole package mounts on an XDR driver freehub body, which is the correct interface for all SRAM road AXS cassettes.
The cassette is tuned for the AXS wireless electronic shifting system and optimized for the Force-level groupset, though it runs correctly with RED AXS derailleurs as well. For riders on a Force AXS build who want the original D1 spec cassette at 10-28t for flat to moderately rolling road terrain, this is the correct replacement. If you need more range for climbing, the E1 generation XG-1270 is available in 10-33t and 10-36t options. The 10-28t range is for riders who ride fast on mostly flat roads and want to stay in tight gears the whole time.
