SRAM RED GROUPSET '2010'

Now Only

sramredgroup1

When the pursuit of victory becomes so focused and singleminded that nothing else matters. Inspired by the search for competition-vanquishing advantages, SRAM has created a world where high-performance race-ready componentry is taken one step beyond. SRAM Red is a living lab focused on the design, development, and improvement of alreadyrevolutionary technology. Red components are crafted with three major ideas in mind:


Light weight: Engineered materials with a balanced minimalist design. The first true sub-2000g gruppo!

Higher efficiency: Component interaction, customizability and adjustment, feel, geometry, ergonomics, and fine-tuned gear ranges mean you go faster, longer, with less energy.

Advanced materials: From materials like carbon, titanium, and ceramic bearings all the way to standardsetting surface finishes.


The cassette is vastly different from other SRAM cassettes with their Power Dome technology. Innovative CNC'd chromoly steel construction provides a huge improvement on weight, and with being 35% harder than titanium, this is one durable cassette! As with SRAM's other cassettes, the OpenGlide technology allows for the smoother transition between gears while up- and down-shifting.

SRAM Red road groupset include:

  • Red carbon crankset 172.5mm
  • GXP Ceramic Bottom Bracket cups
  • Red DoubleTap® carbon dual control brake/ shift levers
  • Red carbon/magnesium rear derailleur
  • Red front derailleur Braze-On
  • Red Skeletonized dual pivot brake calipers
  • Red 1090 OpenGlide 10sp 11-23 cassette
