1:1 Actuation™ is superior intentionally

Every unit of cable you pull moves the derailleur an equivalent amount. Actuation stays precise and fluid slogging through mud, bouncing off rocks, rutting through roots — wherever you discover yourself, whatever conditions you're in. It's dependable. Tolerant. Easiest to line up. Easiest to regulate . And, not coincidentally, the highest choice of the highest MTB riders. Got it? Good.

Exact Actuation

When we launched our road technology from scratch we reapplied our MTB proven SRAM 1:1 actuation ratio (shifter cable travel : derailleur movement) for 10 speed rear shifting. EA helps to simplify/stabilize the uneasy act of balancing rear derailleur hanger design, tight cog spacing and exact cable tension. The result: the simplest index shifting system to line up and it stays that way.
