Wow Now I have a much better understanding how the sequential shifting works. Looks like a real nice feature if you want to focus on cadence and reduce the focus on shifting front derailleur....
@@AndyPass1976 SRAM AXS Force the shifting is off the charts good. Hit every gear even when triple upshift/downshift its like butter always finds the gear. Some folks said its slower then Di but once you figure out the shift timing, shifting comes natural.... I am so happy I put it on my bike. 2 years still going strong, battery life is still great charge up about 2 - 3x per year. Ridden in deep water no issues, ridden low batt no issues, ridden up steep climbs no issues. about 1-2K mi/year no issues.
Thanks for the breakdown! 🤔 Need some advice: 🙏 I have these words 🤨. (behave today finger ski upon boy assault summer exhaust beauty stereo over). What should I do with this? 🤷♂️
@@darrenbarlow5759 I don’t really like the levers, I think shimano has a better solution with the the buttons for shifting..The brakes have a bit to much travel for my taste. About the drivetrain I have no complaints. Very good range of gears. No chain skipping, very presise. My old bike had 10 speed red group,, so it vas a big upgrade. Overall I would give it 4/5 stars.
I just bought a Tarmac Pro with the SRAM Force ETap. It's super easy and uncomplicated to set up and takes two minutes! Then you forget about it and never have to even open the app again if you don't want to.
@@darrenbarlow5759 yes, according to bike shop is a tight tolerance for adjustment, my chain just dropped off this morning on the outside on a very light load for the fist time in quite a while, has been good for a few months since last service. Does not happen to everyone, but I know at least two local guys who had it for a period of time, especially while 'running' the bike in. I have done about 3.5K km so far.
Coming from 10 to 32 the front derailleur is activating too late on the smaller wheel. How can I adjust the right activating in the app? It looks that the sequential shifting is not adjustable...
@@massimobianchi8158 made a bit of search, this is a common issue and also shifting for small to big chain ring is not smooth... im very disappointed, i could 100% trust the shimano 105 group... but i have to be cautious with front shifting on axs
The complete Force AXS feels "budget". Sorry to say that. But I also have the old Force 22 mechanical group on another bike. There are worlds between the quality of the old and new Force. I regret that I also bought the Quarq Powermeter spider so it's not cheap to swap the whole group against Shimano Di2. After my experience with the SRAM Force AXS (chain drops, chain sucks which led to a scratched Orbea frame which was brand new, no working micro-adjustment, noisy cassette and NO answer from SRAM to the obvious quality issues they currently have especially with the Force group) SRAM for me is history. Find more stories (including mine including pictures) on Facebook in the group "SRAM AXS Owners". You're not alone.
@@HystrixLignum I could improve front shifting by setting limit screw so that the chain is as close as possible to the cage. But shifting small to big is still far from perfect and not as good as shimano 105. That stupid groupset costed me a scratch on my brand new frame...
This bike was really easy to assemble ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxMesz3KOGEmwmvyKQfLfrRSUXLFzfVHZA and required very few adjustments out of the box. The wheels did not require any truing/adjustments. The frame had some small scratches, but nothing major.I did replace the seat though - the seat it came with was very uncomfortable. The tires need to be re-inflated every 4-5 days, but this appears to be quite common for the narrow 700x25 tires.Overall, in my opinion, this bike looks and rides like a much more expensive bike.
I just bought the Red AXS for my new Moots Routt RSL build. Man-o-man is this a slick group. As I was hoping I would after what I spent. Love it.

I recently bought a bike with SRAM AXS Force and love the sequential shifting.

Bike shifting gears properly is the best sound

Getting my new Domane with axs in a few days. Excited.
How do you like the SRAM groupset?

Me too... mine keeps dropping the chain on the inside. : (
@@Shwamdoo123 need to keep some pressure on the chain while shifting, quite common, usually outside though. you get used to it.
@@Shwamdoo123 is it still an issue?
@@greg3406 considering SRAM axs. Is this a real issue? Do you actually need keep pressure on for the shift? Thanks

Awesome video. Does the app let you see what gear the bike is in?
yes
if you connect it to a garmin 1030 you can set it up to see graphically which gear you are in and battery life of each component.

How can I check what size my rear cassette is?
Shifting at 3:54
Force axs doesnt feel smooth anyone else has this feeling? Its like there are some vibration coming from the contact of cog and chain
Yes just installed and I have the same feeling

Will the new 12x Force fit a Tacx Neo2 trainer????
Yes, with the Tacx $70 adaptor.
I have no issues running it on my Wahoo Kickr with the 11x cassette it came with.

this is getting ridiculous

@@boragrello im saying the app is just to much no ?
@@alves81 Using the app is optional
@@alves81 this gear racing is ridiculous.. Heheh.. More expensive bikes everyday...
But Shimano still has wires on their "wireless" shifting. Sram has been truly wireless for 3 years.
