SRAM XX SL Eagle T-Type Crankset Q168
SRAM XX SL Eagle T-Type Crankset Q168 Info
The SRAM XX SL Eagle T-Type Crankset Q168 sits at the top of SRAM's MTB drivetrain hierarchy — a crankset built for riders who demand every gram be justified. Designed around SRAM's T-Type drivetrain ecosystem, it brings the XX SL's race-proven pedigree into full compatibility with the T-Type system's chain and chainring interface. Available in 165mm, 170mm, and 175mm arm lengths, all with a 34-tooth chainring and a Q168 stance width, it covers the geometry demands of cross-country racers and weight-conscious trail riders alike.
Carbon fiber hollow-core crank arms are the foundation here — a construction approach that targets both stiffness and minimum weight without trading one for the other. The T-Type design integrates a refined chainring interface intended to improve chain retention and shifting precision under the dynamic loads of technical terrain. This is the same crankset platform that has seen use at the professional XC and endurance racing level, where component reliability at low weight isn't optional. The Q168 spindle standard keeps your stance narrow and biomechanically efficient, which matters across long climbs and sustained efforts in the saddle.

Design Benefits
- T-Type drivetrain integration: The XX SL Eagle crankset is built to work within SRAM's T-Type ecosystem, meaning the chainring interface and chain engagement are designed specifically for T-Type chains and rear derailleurs — delivering the consistent, precise shifting that system is known for on demanding singletrack.
- Carbon hollow-core arms: Hollow-core carbon construction reduces weight at the crank arm without compromising the torsional rigidity you need when sprinting out of a corner or grinding up a steep technical climb. It's a material choice that reflects the XX SL's position as SRAM's flagship MTB crankset.
- Q168 stance width: The narrower Q168 spindle standard positions your feet closer together than wider Q-factor alternatives, which can improve pedaling efficiency and reduce lateral stress on the knees — a genuine advantage over long days in the saddle or repeated race efforts.
