I'm considering fitting the new SRAM XX 1x11 drivetrain to my Santa Cruz Blur XC when it is released in October. I have Tune hubs, but so far only SRAM, DT Swiss and Mavic have committed to the new freehub body required. Is Tune manufacturing a compatible freehub body, or do any of the others listed fit a Tune hub? :?:

I have heard that Extralite is working on a new hub body to be compatible with the XX1 cassette, you may want to contact Tune to see of they are planning the same.

Asked Tune this morning and also got an answer within an hour. :thumbup:

"we are planning a XX-1 body for spring 2013"

So i think that is good news! :beerchug:

Are you sure? I know she had a XX-crank & chainring at the WC-Eliminator, but the rest of the driveline seems to be 10 spd XX/X0 with a X0 Type 2 RD. But if you seen her on the XX1-cassette with a Tune-hub, then it's only good news. :D

Sorry for the big picture!

I hope Tune custom the hub body for XX1, or we will have to change the rear hub to put XX1 on the bike.
