11 speed, non-parallel shift movement - Front derailleur maintains angular relationship with the chain
Trim removed from shifter ; Shifting feels more direct and precise on up and down shifts
Hybrid cage - Aluminum/Steel cage with composite shift tail is Lightweight and stiff while optimizing shifts
Integrated Chain Keeper - 2.5mm mounting and adjusting hex bolts, install or remove without loss of front derailleur appearance or shifting function
Weight: 70gm (braze on)
The SRAM Red22 Front Derailleur changes everything. Instead of simply moving back and forth, the derailleur cage actually rotates to maintain a consistent angular relationship with the chain. SRAM calls it YAW Technology and it eliminates the need for shifter trim. As a result, shifts feel more direct, more precise and combined with the new Red crankset and chainrings, delivers an unmatched performance advantage in front shifting.
