The new SRAM Rival 22 groupset delivers immense performance across a broad variety of bikes & disciplines. Paved or not. Cyclocross or triathlon. Road racing or unchartered journeys. Rival 22 provides the ergonomics, efficiency & technology for finely tuned cyclists to meet each challenge & expand their limits. Dedicated cyclists' demands are different
- not less than
- the pro's. Their demands change & evolve with their riding & performance, whether they're race ready or adventure ready. So why settle for a group that's simply ratcheted-down to 75 percent of what the pros ride? Rival 22 delivers 100 percent of what cyclists dem&. Road braking has remained in the dark ages. Sure, they're shinier & lighter, but rudimentary. While frame & drive train development has been the stuff of modern space exploration, road braking has languished with the likes of horse shoes an buggy whips. Until now. SRAM, long a leader in hydraulic braking technology with the Avid br&, has reset the vision for road bike braking for the coming decade. Not unlike every other high speed conveyance, SRAM brings hydraulic technology to road cycling for multiple applications. Disc or rim brake, SRAM will stop what you've propelled, faster & with better modulation. Go ahead & go in deep.
