Madrone Cycles has been busy since we first caught up with them earlier this 12 months at Sea Otter. Madrone remains to be providing SRAM AXS rebuild kits, but it surely’s their very own prototype rear derailleur that has improved considerably since we final noticed it. Now on the Gen 2 prototype, the derailleur is modular to permit it to work with 10, 11, 12, or 13-speed cassettes, totally different shifters, and even a UDH Direct-Mount or customary derailleur hanger mount.
Madrone founder Aaron Bland walks us by means of the small print.
