Owners of 3 x 9 mountain, hybrid or trekking bikes running SRAM rear derailleurs who need to replace worn or broken shifters.
The SRAM X5 trigger set gives you a 9-speed right shifter and a 3-speed left shifter, the classic triple chainring mountain bike setup. SRAM's push-push trigger layout lets you shift with your thumb without moving your hands off the grips.
The right shifter uses SRAM's Exact Actuation 1:1 cable pull, so it must be paired with a SRAM 9-speed mountain rear derailleur. It will not index correctly with a Shimano rear derailleur.
Both shifters come with stainless steel inner cables, so all you need to add is fresh housing for a complete refresh.

Shifters
In the box
Exact Actuation
SRAM's 1:1 cable pull ratio, where the shifter moves the same amount of cable as the derailleur moves. It is less fussy about dirt and small cable tension changes.
Great for
Maybe not for
Rear shifter suits SRAM 9-speed 1:1 (Exact Actuation) rear derailleurs only. Left shifter suits SRAM mountain triple front derailleurs. Housing is sold separately.
Check your derailleur first
Look for the SRAM logo on your rear derailleur before buying. If it says Shimano, these won't shift properly. When fitting, replace the housing at the same time, as old housing is often the real cause of sloppy shifting.
Drivetrains, brakes and more for every kind of riding.
SRAM started in Chicago in 1987 with a twist shifter and has grown into one of the big three component makers, building drivetrains, brakes and suspension for road, gravel and mountain bikes.
