As soon as ten minutes after removing the mechanical GX shifter and rear derailleur you'll be riding your new wireless AXS set-up. it is that simple, and while you will be able to access and manage the component information from the AXS app via Bluetooth on you phone at your convenience, getting started doesn't requirement.
SRAM's AXS system is well proven at this point, and has been extremely reliable. The Controller has a coin cell battery that lasts much longer than you'd think, and the eTap battery for the rear derailleur is the same as every other eTap battery. Using the charging dock via USB cable to recharge is easy, and we recommend picking up an extra battery at some point for simplicity and readiness. Although the GX Rear Derailleur, carrying the small, lightweight spare battery on the trail is great insurance. If you are ready to spare yourself the maintenance and hassle of housing and a cable, the proven AXS system will impress you with it's effectiveness and reliability, even with the toughest chainlines and extreme angles of the 1x12 GX Eagle drivetrain.
