SRAM RED-2012 and Force get WiFLi… Wider Faster and Lighter

According to groupset player SRAM, WiFLi is the drivetrain technology that has changed the way people ride by offering a 2×10 system with wider gearing options, ‘making set-up and shifting faster and easier, and significantly reducing weight.’

Now SRAM RED-2012 and SRAM Force offer WiFLi options, ‘allowing riders to tackle every climb and any descent, with the confidence of always having the right gears.’

WiFLi delivers an expanded gear range with the world’s first 11-32 10-speed cassette for road, combined with a compact (50/34) front chainring. The rear derailleur (RD) lengthens its cage and gets a slight variation in geometry, and is known as a mid-cage RD, which can compensate for wide range cassettes. The system delivers a wider gear range than the standard triple chainring system and, according to SRAM, saves well over 250g.

SRAM compact Exogram RED-2012 crankset, XG-1099 11 32 cassette, and RED- 2012 mid-cage RD will be available in June. SRAM Force will add the mid-cage RD, also in June. Compact cranks and 11-32 cassette (PG-1070) are already available.
