About The SRAM X5 9-Speed Rear Derailleur
The SRAM X5 is an affordable 9-speed mountain rear derailleur for repairs and upgrades. It uses SRAM's 1:1 actuation, so it pairs with SRAM 9-speed shifters.
This listing offers medium and long cages in black or silver. SRAM lists a 34t maximum cog, 37t or 45t chain wrap capacity depending on cage, and 290 g or 299 g.
Who It's For
- Riders repairing a 9-speed SRAM mountain or hybrid drivetrain.
- Shops and home mechanics replacing a bent 9-speed derailleur.
- Not compatible with Shimano shifters, which use a different cable pull.
What to Look For
- Shifter: SRAM 1:1 actuation, 9-speed.
- Cage: Medium or long; pick long for 2x/3x drivetrains with a wide spread.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer free shipping?
We do offer free shipping on non-bike orders over $100. We do not offer free shipping for bicycles unless it is a one time promotion. Generally, bike shipping will cost $150 and that covers just the shipping of the bike with no assembly. If you were to bring that bike to your local mechanic or bike store, you would pay them their assembly fee. If you choose our Professional Assembly option for $200, our service technicians would assemble the bike before shipping and then re-pack the bike safely for transit. When you receive the bike you would attach the front wheel, attach the seatpost/saddle, and raise the handlebars and clamp them. Those three items do have to be detached to minimize or eliminate the chance of damage in transit.
How much does shipping cost?
For orders of parts, accessories, apparel, etc. on orders under $100, shipping is a flat rate of $9.99. Regular bike shipping without assembly is $150, bike shipping with Professional Assembly is an additional $200 (so $350 in total which includes the $150 of regular shipping). Our White Glove Delivery option is $699 and that will cover the assembly of the bike and our White Glove Delivery partner delivering your dream bike to your front door, ready to ride!
