SRAM Rival eTap AXS

SRAM has brought wireless shifting to its Rival tier groupset, significantly dropping the cost of electronic shifting - with the option of adding crank-based power from £230.

The American brand introduced its wireless, electronic shifting to the market via Red eTap AXS (pronounced, as I still keep keep forgetting, "access") in February 2019, closely followed by SRAM Force in April of the same year. The new offering from SRAM sees the price of electronic shifting reduced dramatically with a full groupset from £1,102 for a 1x set up or £1,314 for 2x.
