If you are a fan of the SRAM brand and enjoy limited-edition products, you should be on the lookout! SRAM released a groupset called the "1987 Collection." What does this groupset include, why SRAM chose this name, and how many of them will be available? You will find out in our article.

When we started chasing the dream of a better ride, we could never have predicted what we’d be riding some 38 years later. But the realization of Eagle Transmission remains true to day one. And while we’re never satisfied, we’re taking a moment to celebrate with the 1987 Collection. The limited edition groupset features a unique combination of T-Type Ecosystem components, of which we’re most proud, all in an exclusive silver finish. This is the 1987 Collection. The dream delivered. 

Limited Edition 

Produced in a limited run of just 1,987 groupsets worldwide—each one individually numbered, and with a finish you won’t find anywhere else, this is a celebration of where we started and everything we’re proud of right now. So whether you’re upgrading or assembling a once-in-a-lifetime build, this is a chance to experience Eagle Transmission most uniquely. And when they’re gone, they’re gone.  

Cassette

Rooted in the architecture of our lightest weight MTB cassette, XX SL, we were able to shave off an additional 25 grams without sacrificing performance or durability. Same 10-52T range, same X-Sync teeth for game-changing best shift under load performance. Not compatible with E-MTB.

Power Meter Crankset

Take the most advanced aluminum crankset we’ve ever made, X0 T-Type, and pair it with our most accurate and integrated power meter. The dual-sided power measurement system calculates total watts while being subtle, lightweight, and boasting an unbeatable battery life. The ground-breaking crankset offers an all-aluminum design and a perfectly balanced stiffness-to-weight ratio.

  • X0 inspired aluminum crankset available in most common 170mm length only 
  • Spider-based power meter provides dual-sided power, and threaded chainrings 
  • 34t and 32t Chainrings and Threaded Chainring Removal Tool included 

AXS Derailleur

Perfectly blending weight and robustness, the 1987 derailleur embodies the pinnacle of performance, durability, and style, achieved by combining the rugged cage from our XX derailleur with the lightweight body of our XX SL derailleur. The limited silver colourway is paired with Full Mount architecture to deliver a derailleur that provides the perfect shift every time.

Flattop Chain

The 1987 Collection T-Type chain features hollow links, hollow pins, and a Hard Chrome coating, pushing the strength-to-weight ratio to an unprecedented level. The subtle detailing carries the handwriting of SRAM founder, Stan Day, as well the unique groupset serial number.

AXS Pod Controllers

Two AXS Pod Ultimate Controllers complete the kit, providing an organized cockpit and the freedom of left- and right-hand customization touchpoints. It includes silver infinity clamps to complement the rest of the system.

Accessories

Because you don’t always know, we’ve included 32t and 34t Chainrings, as well as the required Threaded Chainring Removal Tool to tailor your drivetrain to suit your needs. A 4-Battery USB-C charger fills four AXS batteries in the same time as a single charger. While two included AXS batteries ensure that you’ve always got a spare.
