I've made the leap


I've said it before and I'll say it again: SRAM rocks! The more miles I put on my SRAM road components, the more impressed I am. Brakes are phenomenal. Rival shifters are ok, but the Red shifters rock the house down. The derailleurs take a little time and care dialing in, but once set the shifts are lightning-fast. Double Tap shifting is the cat's meow. I'm a little "meh" about the gloss black finish on the Rival parts, but hey...you ride, not stare at your bike, right? All in all if they fit your bike and you like Double Tap, the price/performance of SRAM cannot be denied.
