eTap
drivetrain
eTap is SRAM's wireless electronic shifting system, now branded under the AXS ecosystem. Each derailleur has its own removable battery, and the shifters communicate wirelessly with the derailleurs.
eTap uses a "double-tap" logic: pressing both shift paddles together shifts the front derailleur. Right paddle alone shifts to a harder gear, left to an easier gear. The AXS app allows customisation of shift behaviour, mode swaps, and integration with other AXS components.
