Details

SRAM's RED 22 Hydro Shift Levers deliver pro-level shifting performance, unmatched ergonomics, and the power and modulation of hydraulic braking. You’ll instantly notice that the hydraulic rim brake requires lower hand force than a traditional cable pull road brake, and provides optimized power and modulation that enhances every ride. The hydraulic rim brake caliper has a tool-free contact point adjustment, a quick release for easy wheel changes, and a huge 27.4mm rim width compatibility. As soon as you wrap your hands around the hoods, you’ll fall in love with the great texture that increases grip while offering additional cushioning. There's ample room for your fingers thanks to the small diameter body and loads of space behind the brake lever. You'll feel the power and response of SRAM’s DoubleTap shifting as you drop a gear for that grueling climb or ratchet through the 11 speeds in that frantic sprint finish.

The keystone to SRAM's revolutionary road groups is their proprietary DoubleTap shifter technology, which lets you shift up and down from nearly any position on the bars with a solitary lever. Short, rapid taps of the shift lever cause the transport pawl to move the ratchet wheel down through the shifting range (putting you in a harder gear in the rear), while a long sweep of the lever allows the holding pawl to leapfrog over the transport pawl (putting you in an easier gear in the rear). The DoubleTap system also boasts superior ergonomics in lever sweep. Instead of moving straight in and out, the lever moves inwards at a 15-degree angle, following more closely the natural movement of your hand. And, the double-articulated design separates the brake and shift levers, which allows them to move separately, making braking and shifting at the same time easier than ever. You can even keep the shift lever pinned to the bar, perfect for lightning-quick shifts during blazing-fast finishing sprints.
