Bigger gear range, more speeds, a modular rear derailleur & really light wheels - here's all the tech on the new Shimano GRX gravel group.
, but there are plenty of subtle updates that give it more range, better ergonomics, and even some system modularity that makes it easier to switch things around.
What made the original GRX group so refreshing was that it matched up with their road and mountain bike lineup, allowing you to mix and match cassettes, shifters, and derailleurs to create a group that worked for you. GRX parts were more gravel specific, but if you already had a big cassette, you could add the clutched rear derailleur and offset crankset to gain more offroad capability.
Yes, all of the 1x cassettes are simply mountain bike cassettes, there’s no “GRX” cassette, though they do “spec” XT as the recommended level to match the rest of the group. That means you’ll need a Micro Spline freehub body on your gravel wheels to use the 1x GRX groups. The only difference is the cage, and you can swap them out, swap cassettes, and swap chains as you’ll need a couple extra links for the bigger cassette and longer cage.
The textured pattern remains the same, but they seemed keen on pointing out that the height of the ribs is 0.8mm, a number that came about from testing a range of heights from 0.5mm to 1.0mm .
