Sram Rival AXS XPLR rear derailleur, RD-RIV-1-D1:

The SRAM Rival AXS XPLR eTap rear derailleur has been made AXS-compatible for easy customisation and is designed for single-chainring systems. The advanced Orbit chain management system ensures quiet and reliable operation, regardless of the terrain. The rear derailleur is also faster, as it features larger X-Sync pulleys, ceramic bearings, improved motors and signal transmitters, all of which enhance performance in every respect. Wireless connectivity via the AIREA network ensures a quick and clean installation.

The electronic SRAM Rival AXS eTap front derailleur: perfectly matched to the SRAM X-Range 12-speed chainrings with proven Yaw technology. The SRAM eTap Yaw derailleur technology: instead of simply moving back and forth, the derailleur cage now traces a small arc, maintaining a constant angle to the chain. This is the new Yaw technology. It enables trim-free shifting. Optimised for use with 46/33 or 48/35 X-Range chainrings

SRAM Rival AXS disc brake, ED-RIV-E1:

All in one: effortless braking with just one finger and completely wireless shifting with unrivalled ergonomics. We’ve positioned the brake lever pivot higher up on our shift-brake unit so that you need around 80% less force when braking from the top-bar position than before. But because braking performance is only part of the equation, we’ve expanded the grip width adjustment range whilst eliminating the risk of pinching your fingers during hard braking. Lighter, with more powerful brakes and adjustable to fit even more hand sizes – all you have to do is get pedalling

• Braking with just one finger – whether in the top grip or sprint position
• AXS-compatible for easy setup, quick customisation and high reliability
• Optimised lever body shape to suit a wide range of hand sizes
• Carbon brake levers for low weight
• Textured shift paddles and lever body for greater control and comfort
• Grip width adjustment for individual adaptation to different hand sizes

Fully wireless electronic shifting combined with fully hydraulic disc brakes. The award-winning eTap shift logic combined with the connectivity of AXS. The SRAM Rival AXS eTap shift levers build on this foundation and combine it with the latest technologies. What’s more, they are now even easier to personalise, from customising shift sequences to adjusting lever reach. SRAM Rival AXS disc brake shifters feature racing-car-inspired paddle shift logic that virtually eliminates accidental upshifts when downshifting, whilst keeping shifting precise, fast and easy. The ErgoBlade levers and large SRAM eTap shift paddles offer reliable control and good feedback.

SRAM AXS batteries:

Batteries are used on the rear derailleur and front derailleur. These batteries are interchangeable. So, for example, if the rear derailleur runs out of power halfway through a ride, you can shift to your preferred chainring at the front, swap the two batteries and then continue riding without worry. The batteries have a capacity of approximately 1,000 kilometres or 60 hours of riding time. The charging time for a battery is around 45 minutes. In addition, all components of the SRAM Red eTap groupset are equipped with LED indicators. Green means the battery is fully charged, and red indicates that there is still sufficient capacity remaining. Only when the LED starts flashing red does the charge level approach the end, leaving around 5 per cent capacity remaining.

SRAM AXS technology

AXS is the electronic integration platform that connects SRAM’s electronic bike components and software. The AXS components communicate wirelessly with each other using 128-bit encryption. Every time a groupset comprising, for example, shift levers, a front derailleur and a rear derailleur is paired, a unique code is generated to prevent interference with other riders. The SRAM AXS app allows you to view the battery status, adjust component behaviour, customise controllers, receive maintenance reminders and update the firmware. This app is available free of charge from the App Store for iOS and Android.

Flat Mount Standard:

The new Flat Mount caliper standard for road bike brakes reduces weight and offers a significantly sleeker look. With the Flat Mount standard, the rear caliper sits directly on the chainstay, with a bolt spacing of 35 mm; no adapter is required for caliper mounting. The bolts pass through the chainstay from below directly into the brake caliper. A flat adapter is still required on the fork; the fork mount has a bolt spacing of 75 mm and the brake caliper is the same as for the rear wheel. The adapter is screwed onto the rear of the fork leg, with the brake sitting directly on the adapter. By flipping the adapter over, the available brake disc sizes of 140 and 160 mm can be changed.
