microSHIFT (Taiwan) - Press Release: We wanted a new high performance drivetrain with light weight and wide range. We didn’t want a bunch of weird new standards or proprietary parts. So, we locked our engineers in a windowless room and put them to work.

The result: ADVENT X.

A shred-ready, top of the line MTB drivetrain from your friends at microSHIFT.

Big Range, Small Weight:

Sure, we could have added 13 speeds, or a 54T cog. But with modern drivetrains adding complexity and weight, we thought it was time to slim things down instead. The ADVENT X cassette comes with 10 evenly spaced gears and an 11-48T range, all at an amazingly svelte 424g. The evenly spaced gearing means you won’t find yourself shifting twice to find the right gear, and the wide range and light weight mean you’ll have to wait for your friends at the top of the hill.

No New Standards:

This cassette fits on normal HG Freehub bodies and plays nicely with the 10 speed chains on the market.

Comfort And Control:

When your hands are in the right place, you can feel it. Our all new Trail Trigger Pro shifter puts the controls right where your thumb wants them, so you never have to compromise your grip to shift. With an integrated silicone traction pad and our signature “light and clicky” lever action, this might just be your new favorite shifter.

Featuring:

• Thumb Trigger Action
• SiliconE Traction Pad
• Smooth Action, Positive Feel

Nice and reliable:

You want a drivetrain that makes the shift every time, regardless of conditions. We took our super reliable ADVENT 9 speed platform and upgraded everything to deliver reliable performance in a sleek, race weight package. With our patented ratchet-and-pawl clutch, full metal construction, and creature comforts like metric hardware for hassle-free setup, this derailleur sets a new standard for being easy to own.

Featuring:

• Ratchet and Pawl Clutch
• Metric Adjustment Hardware
• Bomber Metal Construction

High end without the hassle:

If you’re looking for high end performance without goofy new standards or proprietary parts, look no further. ADVENT X works with normal hubs and chains, has a wide range cassette and a dialed shifter, and it’s lighter than similar groups from our competitors. Nothing’s going to hold you back except the extra weight in your wallet.
