Rumors have been flying about what SRAM has in store for the next generation Red component group. It is almost hard to believe that SRAM has only been in the road game for a short period of time as they now grace a lot of the Tour riders and bikes across the world. With their double tap technology, SRAM has carved a niche out for themselves in road biking.
According to rumors, the new Red groupo is going to continue to be a 10 speed setup. However, that is about the only spec that it will share with the current generation. Features like customizable gel padding under the hoods, hollow carbon fiber crankset, rotating derailleur designs and the option of hydraulic disc brakes are all hitting the rumor mills.
In perfect SRAM fashion, they have just released this teaser video to get the media circles running. What have you heard about the new SRAM Red setup?
I founded Bike198 back in 2007 and started riding bikes seriously in 1994. A lot has changed since that time and one of the greatest releases is still getting out on the bike and shredding trail or tearing up the road.
