SRAM RED HRD Shift-Brake Control + Hydraulic Disc Brakes - Flat Mount - Set 2x11-speed / front+rear

RoadBike Test Winner 10/15 - Verdict: Outstanding! (in the test: standard version)

It takes a great passion for cycling to fully appreciate SRAM RED. Blur the lines between man and machine. Discipline, will, consistency, willingness to make sacrifices. These are the qualities that riders need to be at the top of their game. Their car must be made of the same stuff. Powerful and pure. Light and fast. This is SRAM RED. This is true progress: Using design and innovation without sacrificing performance. Helping blur the lines between man and machine.

SRAM RED HRD DoubleTap brake/shift lever + hydraulic disc brakes - flat mount

BRAKING POWER WITHOUT COMPROMISE If you believe in better performance, you should opt for hydraulic road bike brakes (HydroR™). With our award-winning HydroR™ technology, we deliver on our promise of better braking, more control and better performance in every situation. SRAM RED ensures reliable and safe braking and offers a new level of speed control and stability.

RED ergonomics including grip width adjustment
Compatible with SRAM 11-speed road gears
Optimized braking power and modulation for higher speeds and more control
More comfort thanks to the improved design of the lever body
Easily accessible bleed hole for reliable maintenance
Lightweight paddle controls with more finger room

DOT 5.1™

Heat is the enemy of any braking system. Better heat management will also make your ride much safer. SRAM has discovered that DOT 5.1 takes three times longer to reach boiling point than DOT 4. This ensures smooth, never-diminishing braking power even under the most extreme conditions.

Double Tap

What is DoubleTap? DoubleTap® is SRAM's key technology that replaces traditional technology. The combination of a brake lever and a shift lever has not proven itself well. SRAM RED, SRAM Force, SRAM Rival and SRAM Apex have a brake lever that brakes and a shift lever that shifts.

The advantages of DoubleTap®: With DoubleTap® you change faster and easier. There is only one direction of movement. To go up, a short tap is enough. To shift down a gear, just push the lever further down.

How DoubleTap Works: The ingenious thing about DoubleTap® technology is the constant direction of movement of the shift lever. With a short, quick tap, the transport pawl moves the ratchet wheel up through the change range. For a lower gear, the lever is moved a greater distance. In the process, the retaining and transport pawls jump over each other quickly and cleanly.

Free choice of grip position: The almost linear direction of movement of the DoubleTap® levers offers another advantage. The gear lever can be operated from almost any grip position. Unique is the fact that the shift lever can be pulled towards the handlebars like a pistol trigger! You can upshift in a sprint without releasing your grip on the handlebars.

Your advantage: Efficient and ergonomic design saves weight and offers more comfort. It can also be switched during the sprint, which gives you a decisive advantage not only in competition. Our single lever mechanism also allows for faster and more precise shifting without having to change your grip on the handlebars. DoubleTap® is the new way to move and think: Take the leap.

ErgoDynamics

Thanks to the longer brake levers, the independent grip width adjustment for the brake and shift levers and the optimized shape of the lever, the levers are comfortable and easy to reach even for riders of different sizes.

Handle width adjustment

The fit and ergonomics of the brake lever is a very personal matter. Riders have individual stance preferences as well as unique hand sizes and finger lengths. The grip width adjustment makes adjusting the lever a breeze - for maximum control with just one finger.

Yaw™

The derailleur cage rotates and therefore has a constant angular relationship with the chain. The Yaw technology allows a movement without buoyancy. Shift transitions are more direct and precise and in combination with the new Red crank and Red chainrings, the Yaw forms a perfect unit with the chain. The Yaw technology allows a movement without buoyancy. Shift transitions are more direct and precise, and in combination with the new RED crank and RED chainrings, the Yaw provides unprecedented forward shifting performance.

ZeroLoss

ZeroLoss stands for "zero loss". When you press the shift lever to shift up or down, the cable is released instantly, ensuring zero loss of motion. No more downtime waiting for the gear to shift. The gear is changed immediately and precisely.
