Acolyte is an innovative wide range 1x8 group with a completely new clutch design.

Sealed ball-bearing construction provides light and Fluid lever action with crisp and positive shifting. Proprietary cable pull optimized for the wide range clutch derailleur. Brand new clutch design uses a custom spring system to provide all-mountain chain stability that can still be turned on and off for wheel changes. Optimized derailleur kinematics lighten shifting effort with clutch engaged for smooth cable response. Robust & continuously molded cogs paired with a wide 8-speed chain hold up to high torque applications, E-Bike or otherwise. By pushing 8 speed gear range to the limit, even new riders can enjoy the ease of use of a 1x drivetrain.
