It appears that the Eagle AXS is only going to be available (initially at least) as a complete drivetrain setup.:( My wife would like to upgrade her Eagle mechanical to AXS, but all she needs to do that is RD and shifter, so I guess she won't be doing any upgrading until they start selling the components separately, whenever that happens to be.

Some useful information on the system here: https://www.bicycleretailer.com/sites/d ... en_v03.pdf.

Good luck. I ordered my full kit in March, and it is backordered until May 17. I highly doubt they are going to sell components whith full kits on backorder.

Two months to process the order ?? or they did not plan for success or they must be making gold :shock:
It will have to wait then.

I would bet my money on that all those groups in the market were pre-production and they are now making the real production samples.

Still no individual components / Essential kit availability? Full groups in stock everywhere. Does anyone here know anything about the release date for us upgraders?

I'm interested in this as well - all I need is RD and shifter to replace the mechanical Eagle components.

I may be buying a group- Anyone interested in my cranks, cassette and chain? I would be buying the group to get the shifter and derailleur.

(Based on a friend's experience with new XTR)
Don't judge the shifter until you've given it a chance to break in a little, they have a weird crunchy feeling when new. Now it feels pretty much like 11-speed XTR.
