Hi Michael, I have yet to upgrade my Q45 but I did set up my S40 with the SRAM AXS Rival 2X12 and I have been very happy with it. The electronic shifting is slick and intuitive. The additional gears and easy shifting make finding the right gear a pleasure. Just so you know, you need to convert the hub to an XDR and the stock Cruzbike wheel does not have that available.
Thank you! I ordered the AXS GX upgrade kit yesterday from Australia to take advantage of the good exchange rate. Will see how it works out in a few months after the monsoon season ends.

By the way, how do you like the 10 teeth gear on the 12 speed cassette? Trying to decide whether to get the 10-52 or 11-50 cassette. I have heard some people not liking the tiny 10 teeth gear whereas someone even has a 9 teeth gear on his cassette.

Is it possible to get SRAM AXS electronic shifting on an S40. The GXP bottom bracket seems like it limits the choices. Has anyone solved this problem? I have the SRAM AXS electronic shifting on my V20c and love it.

Hi Michael,
What wheel did you mount your Sram axs on? I'm having a hard time with my DT Swiss E1800 370hub The xrd freehub is on (RatchetLN), but I can't find hub end caps that work with the 12 spd sram axs cassette and the Quick release axle. The drive side end cap for the conversion kit is too short.
Hi Wayne,
The wheels are HED Emporia GA Pro 650b with XDR driver. It has 10/52 cassette. The hubs are thru axle, but it says on their website they sell QR end caps.
I hope you get yours to work. I really enjoy the AXS shifting.
Michael
