Underachiever Posted May 16 Share Meanwhile.. I'm enjoying my loud and slow mechanical 2012 Campag Chorus 11 spd groupset on my 2012 Giant rim brake bike (weight = 6.82kg with pedals) crossing the finish line in 101st place.... whilst not worrying to charge another battery last night. If only I had this groupset...I could have made the top 100... the utter disappointment... will take it up with my mental coach next week on how to work through this ordeal...

DieselnDust Posted May 16 Share Expensive but impressive. Force and Rival will follow. The extra cost for Red is also in the Hammerhead Karoo that is included in the bundle. It can be purchased without the Karoo but the launch groups have it bundled in. its been a busy year over at SRAM headquarters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I want to replace only the shifters and the derailleur on my bike, R40k give or take. That is a lot of moola in the greater scheme of things. Not doubt though, they will sell a lot of these things. DieselnDust 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W@nted Posted May 16 Share Hopefully it will trickle down to force and rival quite soon... Did I misread, but I did not see a semi compact (52-36) crankset option? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As D&D says, Red AXS includes the Hammerhead. I wouldn't go and put 'Value for Money' in the sentence, but that is a nice value add (if you want the computer) I imagine that the 1st batch to hit our shores are already pre-sold.

Price also includes the Red Axs quarq power meter crank. There will be a groupset option without power meter although if I had the cash I’d just get it with the quarq because they just work. splat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruben Hechter Posted May 16 Share Are these chainrings one piece? Meaning you can't replace them separately? Edited May 16 by Ruben Hechter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
