EFFORTLESS RED-LEVEL PERFORMANCE FOR EVERYONE
The latest SRAM Force AXS brings the best of the RED into reach for even more cyclists. It’s lighter, more refined, and offers improved braking, shifting, and ergonomics. With wireless simplicity, integrated power options, and clean aesthetics, the Force AXS is the perfect balance of performance and value for road and gravel.
MORE CONTROL, LESS EFFORT
The latest Force AXS delivers pro-level braking in every sense. With a redesigned hood and lever shape, updated calipers, and a lighter one-piece carbon brake lever, it enables precise one-finger braking in any situation. Reach adjust lets riders dial in their setup, while a new breakpoint adjust and improved hydraulic flow ensure predictable modulation with less hand fatigue.
REDUCE GRAMS, GAIN PERFORMANCE
Every gram counts when you’re pushing for peak performance on the road. The Force AXS shaves up to 183g from its predecessor, with newly designed carbon crank arms, lighter 2x and 1x chainrings, and a more efficient power meter. Even the front derailleur and rear mech drop weight while gaining in reliability and precision. All while getting more accessible.
ERGONOMICS THAT WORK FOR YOU
Borrowing directly from the latest RED, the Force now features an all-new hood and grip design with improved hand placement and textured surfaces for confident shifting. The new shift paddles offer tactile feedback and grip in all conditions. Bonus Buttons enable cockpit customization for accessories like computers and lights. With reach adjust and visual setup guides, every rider can dial in their fit with ease.

WIRELESS, SMART & AFFORDABLE
The Rival AXS has always delivered reliable wireless shifting at a great value and now it’s even better. The latest updates bring major improvements in comfort, control, and weight savings. A redesigned brake hood and lever shape offer the same one-finger braking ergonomics found on the Force and RED, with new hood textures and improved reach adjust. The updated crank arms are lighter, the new 1x rings more refined, and the rear derailleur has been slimmed down while maintaining robust chain management. All of this makes the Rival AXS a serious performance upgrade – without the premium price tag.
