Built around SRAMs Double Tap&174; technology, SRAM Rival Double Tap&174; controls offer a performance advantage that other competition-level shifters cant touch. Added this year is Zero Loss shifting, which engages front shifts immediately. &, like SRAM Red, SRAM Rival moves the front trim position to the big ring. Added cable routing options allows for both brake & shifter cables to run along either side of the handlebar. SRAM Rival also incorporates the popular reach adjust feature, which SRAM invented, & allows riders to customize their brake & shift levers. Now every rider has a choice on positioning their Double Tap&174; levers. SRAM Rival Double Tap&174; controls utilize single levers that move in one direction for both up & downshifting, seamlessly & ergonomically combined with dedicated levers for braking; the shift lever is close to the bar with an optimized 15&176; sweep, providing the rider with superior drivetrain control, even in the most demanding competitive situations.
