SRAM S500 Eagle AXS Upgrade Kit – Wireless Electronic MTB Drivetrain Upgrade
Upgrade your existing SRAM Eagle drivetrain to modern, wireless electronic shifting with the SRAM S500 Eagle AXS Upgrade Kit. Designed for riders who want the performance, convenience and clean appearance of AXS without replacing their entire Eagle drivetrain, this complete upgrade kit provides everything required to make the switch to wireless electronic shifting.
The S500 Eagle AXS system combines a precision-engineered AXS rear derailleur with the intuitive POD controller, giving you fast, accurate and consistent gear changes at the press of a button. With no traditional gear cable running from the shifter to the derailleur, installation is simplified and the cockpit and frame have a much cleaner appearance.
Whether you’re upgrading an existing MTB, refreshing an Eagle-equipped bike or looking to move from mechanical shifting to electronic shifting, the S500 AXS kit is an excellent way to bring your drivetrain up to date.
🚵 Wireless SRAM Eagle AXS Shifting
At the heart of the kit is the SRAM S500 Eagle AXS rear derailleur, providing precise electronic shifting without the need for a conventional shift cable.
The wireless connection between the POD controller and rear derailleur keeps the system neat and uncluttered while allowing the derailleur to deliver consistent shifting performance, including when changing gear under pedalling load.
The AXS platform also allows the controls to be configured through the SRAM AXS ecosystem, giving riders the flexibility to personalise their shifting setup.
🔧 Complete Eagle AXS Upgrade Kit
This isn’t simply a replacement derailleur. The kit contains the key components required to upgrade an existing compatible Eagle drivetrain to wireless AXS shifting.

⚡ Why Upgrade to Eagle AXS?
Wireless Electronic Shifting
Say goodbye to traditional gear cables. The AXS system uses wireless electronic communication between the controller and rear derailleur.
Precise Shifting
Electronic shifting provides fast, accurate gear changes with consistent operation across a wide range of riding conditions.
Clean Installation
With no shift cable and outer housing running between the controller and derailleur, the finished bike has a much cleaner appearance.
Simple Setup
The wireless design helps simplify installation compared with a conventional cable-operated derailleur system.
Rechargeable Battery
The supplied AXS battery is rechargeable, eliminating the need for disposable batteries in the derailleur.
Customisable Controls
The POD controller works with the SRAM AXS ecosystem, allowing riders to configure their controls to suit their preferred shifting setup.
🏔️ Built for Eagle Drivetrains
The SRAM S500 Eagle AXS Upgrade Kit is designed around the SRAM Eagle drivetrain ecosystem, making it an ideal electronic upgrade for compatible Eagle-equipped bikes.
You can retain compatible existing Eagle drivetrain components rather than replacing the entire groupset, making AXS an attractive option for riders looking to modernise their bike without the expense of a complete drivetrain replacement.
Please check your existing drivetrain and SRAM compatibility information before ordering. Compatibility can vary depending on the exact Eagle components fitted to the bicycle.
