Technology
CAGE LOCK
With CAGE LOCK technology in the rear derailleur, wheel removal & installation—as well as chain installation—becomes faster & simpler. Just pushing the cage forward to create slack & lock it into place.
ROLLER BEARING CLUTCH
ROLLER BEARING CLUTCH rear derailleurs deliver maximum drivetrain stability—even through the most punishing terrain. With ROLLER BEARING CLUTCH technology, derailleur bounce & chain slap are eliminated without sacrificing precision.
X-ACTUATION
Developed specifically for SRAM 1x, X-ACTUATION keeps shifting sharp & consistent across the entire cassette. X-HORIZON The X-HORIZON rear derailleur’s ‘straight parallelogram’ design limits all movement to the horizontal axis, which makes ghost shifting impossible while also reducing shift force. For quicker, more exact shifting, the large upper pulley offset design maintains a constant chain gap across all gears.
Specifications for SRAM Force 1 Rear Derailleur
The new Force 22 crankset delivers an upgrade in performance by utilizing unidirectional carbon in the crank arm matched to a forged alloy spider. &, like RED, the hidden bolt pattern makes better use of carbon fiber to further improve stiffness & shed weight. The stunning X-Glide R chainrings are optimized for use with the Yaw™ Technology in the front derailleur, delivering seamless, flawless performance. It comes in fullsize & compact ratios & in multiple crank arm lengths. The chainrings are designed for an optimized shifting performance with the Yaw front derailleur. The stiffer rings (5mm 7075-T6 aluminium CNC-machined) feature upshift rivets with an advanced design adopted from SRAM XX. CNC machining allows for precision control of each tooth shape, ramp, & nearly every shifting feature of the chainring. Chainrings, chain, & front derailleur are designed as a single integrated system for optimized performance.
