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

SRAM Force AXS Power Meter, FC-FRC-P-E1

The lightest, stiffest and most accurate combination of power meter and chainring is now available with the SRAM Force AXS power meters. The new power meter with the Thread Mount chainring mount enables the most accurate readings whilst still allowing for easy chainring changes. This guarantees the highest accuracy in power measurement. Quarq technology is accurate to within +/-1.5 per cent and is not affected by temperature fluctuations. The 13-tooth difference between the two chainrings ensures fast and reliable shifting. The integrated chainrings are not only unbeatable in performance but also incredibly durable.

The Thread Mount power meters are mounted on the right crank arm using the familiar 8-point bolt pattern. The chainring kit has an internal thread and is mounted onto the power meter’s thread. The tool required for installation/removal is the same as that used for Transmission Thread Mount chainrings, item no. 00.6218.042.000

SRAM Quarq Technology:

The Quarq Power Meter performance measurement system consists of the CinQo-Saturn ring and the SRAM Red AXS Exogram crankset. Here, the CinQo-Saturn, equipped with state-of-the-art measurement technology, replaces the standard spider of the crankset. The patented measurement technology is integrated into the spider. This is connected via the Ring of Saturn to enable even more accurate measurement of power data.

SRAM Quarq measurement technology:

The Quarq power meter measures power by combining torque, pedal force, angular velocity and cadence, using the strain gauge technology also employed in other power meters. The pedal force applied by the cyclist causes the entire crank to bend slightly for a brief moment. This slight deformation is transmitted to the strain gauges mounted in the crank arm, which measure the deformation and determine the torque. The Quarq CinQo-Saturn uses 20 strain gauges on 10 strain gauge grids in an arrangement patented by Quarq. Data transmission -

Sram Quarq Wireless:

Data transmission is carried out using Bluetooth and ANT+ Sport technology. This wireless data transmission technology is particularly energy-efficient and therefore perfectly suited for use in mobile devices. This makes the Quarq power meter compatible with many receiving devices, e.g. Garmin Edge, Cat Eye Stealth 50, O-Synce Marco X. Power supply: Unlike all other power meter systems, Quarq uses a standard CR2450 battery, which can be replaced by the user without tools. The battery cover is designed similarly to a contact lens case and keeps the battery securely and dry in place. The battery life is approximately 400 hours of continuous use.

SRAM Force Thread Mount Chainring Kit CR-FRC-TMKT-E1:

Developed as part of the Force AXS drivetrain, the Thread Mount 2x chainrings are also part of this innovative system – designed to minimise weight and maximise stiffness and precision in power measurement. Quick chainring changes with an easy-to-use tool. The Force 2x chainring kit is an integrated unit, ensuring that absolutely no power is lost and that your entire output goes into the drivetrain. The X-Range Thread Mount chainrings work perfectly with the Yaw technology of the Force eTap AXS front derailleur, delivering outstanding, smooth shifting. The X-Range chainrings, in combination with the Yaw derailleur, ensure optimal shifting performance.

• The thread-mount design is lightweight, stiff and precise. Compatible with all flat-top road bike chains.
• Crisp and precise front shifting
• One-piece construction for faster, smoother and more reliable shifting
• X-Range gearing technology offers a wider gear range and smoother gear progression, ensuring you’re always in the right gear
• Available with 46/33, 48/35, or 50/37 teeth

SRAM DUB crank axles 28.99 mm:

SRAM has developed its own axle standard for DUB cranksets. SRAM DUB cranksets have an axle diameter of 28.99 mm and are only compatible with bottom brackets designed for DUB cranksets. The DUB road cranksets have a chainline of 106 mm and are only compatible with DUB road bottom brackets

DUB Road Chainline:

SRAM offers DUB road and gravel crankarms in DUB Road and DUB Road Wide versions.

• The DUB Road cranks have a chainline of 45 mm and an axle length of 106 mm
• The DUB Road Wide cranks have a chainline of 47.5 mm and a spindle length of 112 mm

Sram AXS batteries:

Batteries are used on the rear derailleur and the 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 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 false signals from interfering 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 that used on 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 can be changed between 140 and 160 mm.
