READY TO TRI 22
22 usable gears, who could possibly need that many? Ask the triathlete who is in the middle of their “A” race, trying to maintain 85% of their FTP, on a hilly and windy Queen K Highway. The answer will be, every athlete out there.
Actually it was, as virtually every SRAM® sponsored athlete in the 2013 running of the Ironman® World Championships rode SRAM RED 22, and were more than glad they did. When asked about the switch to “22”, the best athletes in the world had this to say; Adding the extra gear, and having 22 usable gears, has changed the game in Kona. Being able to stay on your power on the way up to Hawi, and on the way back down is unbelievable…
SRAM RED 22 or SRAM Force 22 triathlon or time trial gruppos are now available.
