SRAM Force eTap AXS (RD-FRC-D1/D2)

The SRAM Force eTap AXS (RD-FRC-D1/D2) is a high-performance wireless rear derailleur that brings professional-grade technology to the enthusiast level. Built on the 12-speed AXS platform, this derailleur delivers the same lightning-fast shifting logic as the top-tier RED series but with a focus on added durability for the "real-world" rider. It features the Orbit fluid damper system, which uses a silicone-based damping mechanism to manage chain tension and provide a silent ride on everything from smooth tarmac to light gravel. With its robust construction and wide cassette compatibility, the Force AXS derailleur is the go-to choice for riders who want the best in wireless technology without the flagship price tag.

Key Features

• AXS Wireless Ecosystem: Offers a clutter-free build with easy pairing and the ability to customize shift settings via the SRAM AXS mobile app.
