SRAM Force XPLR AXS Wide HRD E1 Gravel groupset 1x13
Performance without compromise. The Force AXS components offer you pro-level technology and low weight so that you can concentrate fully on your ride. Numerous features have been adopted from the RED top groupset.Thirteen gears for even more range, a robust full-mount rear derailleur for reliable shifting in all conditions and newly designed shift/brake levers for effortless and powerful braking are now also on board the Force XPLR. Personalization, firmware updates and the integration of AXS power meters can be conveniently carried out via the SRAM AXS app.
Crank
With their shiny UD carbon finish, the Force cranks combine design and functionality. Despite their low weight, the crank arms have an extremely high stiffness to convert your power into propulsion without loss. The wide version of the Force crank has been specially developed for gravel bikes, with a 5 millimeter wider DUB crankshaft and a 2.5 millimeter wider chainline that offers sufficient tire clearance even for 2.1 inch wide tires.The proven SRAM X-Sync tooth profile with alternating thick and thin teeth (narrow-wide) ensures a secure fit of the chain on the chainring. With the matching DUB-Wide bottom bracket, the Force XPLR crank is compatible with all standard bottom bracket housings.
AXS HRD shift-brake system
Braking with just one finger? The SRAM Force shifters make it possible. Thanks to stiffer brake calipers and the newly designed shift/brake levers with an optimized pivot point, you can generate more braking power in all handlebar positions with significantly less hand force. Thanks to their ergonomic design and grip width adjustment, the shifters are comfortable to use for a wide range of hand sizes. Another highlight are the additional shift buttons integrated into the hoods, which can also be used to operate ANT+-enabled bike computers. The textured main shift paddles work according to the proven eTap shift logic. One rocker switch for upshifting and one rocker switch for downshifting. If both paddles are operated simultaneously, the front derailleur is shifted. The shifting behaviour can be personalized via the SRAM AXS app and additional SRAM Wireless Blip Shifters can also be integrated. Bleeding Edge technology ensures simple and clean bleeding. Thanks to the slim design and the carbon brake levers, the Force AXS HRD system is significantly lighter than the previous version.
AXS 13-speed rear derailleur | 46T
The Force AXS XPLR rear derailleur ensures perfect shifting, even on the most demanding terrain. Thanks to the full-mount design for mounting on frames with UDH derailleur hanger, the rear derailleur is significantly more robust and resistant than the previous version. The rear derailleur can independently avoid hard impacts by briefly decoupling. Should a component be damaged, numerous components can be replaced. The rear derailleur has been specially designed and optimized for use with the XPLR 10-46 tooth cassettes, making it easier than ever to set up the rear derailleur without the need for adjustment screws. With the spring clutch inspired by mountain bikes, the chain sits securely on the chainring even under the toughest vibrations. The carbon rear derailleur cage ensures an elegant look and a reduction in weight.
13-speed cassette
Tight gearing and enough reserves for the steepest ramps. With 13 sprockets and a range of 10-46 teeth, the Force XPLR cassette has the right gear for all requirements. The cassette does without a classic spider and the sprockets are made of tool steel and riveted together. To save weight, the three largest sprockets are made of aluminum. The cassette is compatible with all SRAM Flattop chains and hubs with XDR freehub bodies.
Chain
With its milled inner and outer plates, SRAM was able to save a few grams of weight on the Force Flattop chain. Thanks to the hard chrome coating on the inner plates and rollers, the chain can withstand tough shifting maneuvers and has an increased service life. The chain is easily locked with the enclosed Powerlock chain lock.
160 mm Paceline brake rotors
The Paceline brake rotors take up the elegant design of the AXS Road groupsets. With their optimized ventilation holes, they ensure even and low-vibration braking performance. The rounded edges on the top of the rotor minimize the risk of injury and comply with the guidelines of the UCI cycling world federation. A further advantage is that they make it easier to install the wheel, as the rounded top prevents jamming in the brake calliper.
Charger/batteries
The integrated battery on the rear derailleur has a range of over 1000 kilometers. The charge status can be read at any time via an LED light and the battery is recharged within an hour using the charger supplied.
