SRAM sticks with cables and ten-speed as new RED leaked

SRAM has today released a 37 second introduction to what's speculated to be range-topping version of its RED groupset.

The video offers very little in terms of detail, though if you're hot on hitting pause at intervals, you'll see the XX casstte retains ten sprockets and the shift levers appear slightly revamped over prior designs.
What is also clear is that SRAM remain a fan of cables, while rivals Campagnolo and Shimano are pushing electronic shifting technologies
Take a look here....


Bearings trickledown to SRAM X9 trigger shifters

Previously just XX and XO shifters carried bearings
SRAM has revealed that, as of January 2012, all X9 trigger shifters will be upgraded to host ball bearings.

Previosuly only featured in XX and XO shifters, both ten and nine-speed triggers will benefit from the tech trickledown.

The ball bearing replaces a bushing, resulting in a more solid feel, more precise shifting, and overall higher performance. The change affects all front and rear shifters, all current colours and speeds—2x10, 3x10 and 3x9.
