We are stoked to introduce Madrone's very own Jab derailleur, named after the iconic Jabberwocky trail here in Ashland, Oregon!
The Jab is a cable actuated derailleur built for all types of 1x bikes - MTB, gravel, and e-bikes.
Whether you’re replacing a tired derailleur or building a new ride, the Jab is designed to integrate seamlessly into a variety of different drivetrains.
Media coverage:
Compatible: Flawless shifts with most common 1x drivetrains. MTB or drop bar, 12 or 11 speed, with multiple cage options and mounting types. You can learn more about compatibility here.
Rebuildable: Built to be rebuilt and maintained as a machine that supports you for years. Easily serviced and adjusted with common tools. Service it, rebuild it, replace damaged parts, or change the configuration for a new drivetrain. On top of that, the clutch is adjustable.
Precise: The Jab is more precise than the top of the line options from the major drivetrain companies! The pivot parts are machined to tight tolerances, and they are adjustable. As they wear, you can easily tighten them up and remove the slop. All this translates to crisp, confident shifts – even after heavy use.
But wait, there's more!
Durability: Regarding the balancing act of durability-to-weight, the Jab leans toward durability without going too far. Most parts are CNC machined 6061 and 7075 aluminum (compared to a mix of die cast aluminum and plastic used by competitors). We apply a little bit of extra material and clever geometry in critical areas to ensure the assembly is stiff and durable. We also offer mounting options with an additional stiffener plate, which has similar strength and stiffness to "direct mount" derailleurs.
Environmental responsibility: While plastic makes a lot of sense for some components to save weight, we use metals whenever possible, which are generally much more recyclable in actual practice.
Support: We stand behind every product, and our goal is smooth running drivetrains. We start with detailed videos and technical information on our website. But if you have other questions or issues, you can email us and we will will support you. We also have a fair return policy.
Value: A high end derailleur offering longevity, freedom, and performance at a competitive price.
