Sram Force22 Rear 11Speed
Precision Engineered. Zero Compromise.
The Sram Force 22 Rear Derailleur is built to provide a surgical shifting experience. By utilizing a carbon fiber outer link and a magnesium inner link, Sram has created a component that is incredibly stiff for crisp gear changes, yet light enough to satisfy the most demanding weight-weenies. Whether you are sprinting for a finish line or grinding up a mountain pass, Force 22 ensures your chain moves exactly when and where you want it.
Why Force 22 is the Choice of Serious Cyclists:
-
Exact Actuation™ Shifting: To deliver 11Speed performance, Sram utilized their 1:1 actuation ratio (the derailleur moves the same amount for every millimeter of cable pulled). This creates the most consistent, easy-to-adjust shifting across the entire cassette.
-
AeroGlide™ Pulleys: Featuring a specialized tooth profile and sound-damping rubber, the AeroGlide pulleys reduce vibration and chain noise, resulting in a whisper-quiet drivetrain that lets you focus on the road ahead.
-
Carbon Fiber & Magnesium Build: The outer cage is crafted from high-modulus carbon fiber, while the inner link is forged from magnesium. This combination provides maximum structural rigidity for lightning-fast shifts while keeping the weight significantly lower than its competitors.
-
WiFLi™ Capability (Optional): Available in both Short Cage and Medium Cage (WiFLi) options. The WiFLi version allows you to run up to a 32T cassette, giving you the "compact" gear range needed for the steepest climbs without the weight of a triple crankset.
-
Refined Tooth Geometry: Every angle of the derailleur has been optimized to ensure the chain remains secure and the transition between gears is instantaneous, even under heavy pedaling loads.
-
True 22 Compatibility: Specifically designed to work with Sram’s 22-speed system, allowing for full use of all 22 gear combinations without chain rub or hesitation.

The Alegro Perspective: In the shop, we call Force 22 the "Racer’s Sweet Spot." You get 99% of the performance of the RED groupset at a fraction of the cost. The carbon cage isn't just for looks; it makes the derailleur incredibly stiff, which is why Force shifting feels so much "snappier" than its rivals. If you love the tactile, mechanical "click" of a perfectly tuned road bike, there is simply no better derailleur for the money.
