SRAM RED XG-1290 D1 Cassette - 12 speed | 10-28
What is the SRAM RED XG-1290 D1 Cassette 10-28t built for?
The RED XG-1290 D1 Cassette is the tight-range road racing option in SRAM's flagship RED AXS cassette lineup, covering a 10-28t spread for riders who prioritize micro-step gear progression over climbing range. The one-piece construction eliminates the bolted cog stack found on traditional cassettes, shaving weight while improving the structural integrity of the entire cassette body. X-Range gearing starts at 10t to use more of the rear wheel's mechanical advantage, translating to a faster drivetrain with less chain articulation angle at the small cog end.
Engineered specifically for wireless electronic shifting, the XG-1290 takes advantage of AXS precision actuation to execute clean, fast shifts across the tight 10-28t range even under load. The XDR driver body interface is required — confirm hub compatibility before ordering. If you race flat to rolling courses, time trials, or criteriums where a tight 10-28 spread gives you the micro-steps to hold power through corners and accelerations, this cassette is the spec.
