SRAM Force 22 11 Speed Road Rear Derailleur

SRAM Force 22 11 Speed Road Rear Derailleur

An ideal choice for combining with your road bike’s SRAM RED or Force drivetrain, the Force 22 11 Speed Rear Derailleur adopts technologies from more expensive models to bring you ultra-quick gear changes and almost silent operation. Enhanced with SRAM’s Exact Actuation™, it offers you accurate and optimised shifting throughout your cassette’s range.

SRAM has also refined the tooth geometry of this rear mechanism’s jockey wheels. The result is a chain that runs smoother and quieter than ever before. Despite all these additional technologies, SRAM managed to keep its weight down to well under 200 grams.

“SRAM call this ‘True 22’ because you can cross chain with their system – you can run the chain on the larger chainring and the largest sprocket, and the smaller chainring and the smallest sprocket…whereas Shimano and Campagnolo tell you specifically not to do this.” – Road CC

Technologies:

• AeroGlide Pulleys: Updated tooth pulley design with a sound damping effect for a super-efficient and silent ride experience. Bottom and top pulleys benefit from this feature
• Exact Actuation: When SRAM launched its road technology from scratch, it reapplied its mountain bike (MTB) proven SRAM 1 to 1 actuation ratio (shifter cable travel to derailleur movement) for 10 speed rear shifting. Exact Actuation helps to simplify/stabilise the uneasy act of balancing rear derailleur hanger design, tight cog spacing and exact cable tension. The result: the easiest index shifting system to set up and it stays that way
