SRAM X3 Rear Derailleur - 7,8,9 Speed, Long Cage, Black

Nice for the price. Exactly what it states.

I ordered the X3 derailleur as a cheap stopgap while I waited for the US postal service to deliver an X7 derailleur that got lost in the mail. The X3 works fantastically. Yes it is plastic. Yes the pulleys are not replaceable. Yes it's only $20. But if shifts extremely smooth and precise. I've since received and installed the X7 derailleur I originally ordered and I can't hardly tell the difference. The X7 is all aluminum (except for the cable routing hook/loop) and the pulleys are replaceable. The X7 may be just a hair quicker, but the shift action on the X3 is actually lighter since the spring is not as strong. If you're looking for something that will work well with SRAM shifters and rival the performance of the costlier stuff, but not quite as concerned about durability, this is a great product.Would not hesitate to use and intall another.

Good quality, been on my ebike misaligned for a year. Yesterday looked into actually installing it right. Still working. One thing that needs mentioned tho, the included screw which attaches to the hanger is too loose it has like a half mm of give perpendicular to the wheel which, I stuck some metal epoxy in there to fix it

I bought this Sram X3 rear deraillure because not knowing my Shimano was not compatible with my X3 and X4 speed shifters. The Shimano was not only not compatible it was worn out to make matters worse. After receiving the the X3 derailleur I noticed that the Shimano has a perminate mount for a rear hanger so I ordered a new mount for my store bought mountain bike. Well this bracket was going to take a month to arrive and it had me upset that I couldn't put the Sram rear derailleur on until it came so I went on a Bike shop adventure asking if anyone would have one laying around that I could buy and sure enough after visiting a local bike shop who didn't have it I was turned on to another shop who had the nicest black lady who said she had one and she went and found it in her shop and said it would cost 13.00 dollars well I explained my dilemma to her and she was so kind to sell it to me fir 6 dollars. So I have a new Bike Jersey that I bought from China that is real cool and it was to small right? So for that nice lady letting me have the bracket to mount my X3 and by the way it now shifts like a dream and is crisp with each gear change to wonderful. Anyways I'm going to take that Jersey down to that lady and give it to her for the kindness she showed me. I really needed that bracket to stop the skipping, the jumping and the rest of the crap that going on with my drive train and she was so cool to let me have that Brackett cheap so she will get this 30 bike jersey from me. Thank Sram for the great X3 is a sweet set up now shifts great , crisp, smooth the derailleur was the ticket for sure. Sram shifters, derailleurs and all there products are far better products for the lower end stuff than anything Shimano has and they can be taken apart unlike a Shimano as well. Just a good set up and upgrade for this store bought 29r. Thanks Sram. Dale

Good

was an exact replacement.

This SRAM derailleur was the perfect replacement for the original on my older PEX bicycle. It takes a little knowhow and the right tools to install and adjust, setting the stops and centering on the gear cassette, and there is always the chance you will have to install a new cable if the old one becomes frayed. It also helps to have a bicycle work stand during the adjustment process. But when properly installed and set up, it works perfectly.

its broke with in one ride on the trails

Great 👍
