SRAMForce eTap AXS HRD D2 Shifter/Brake Caliper(Return to Product Page)

Great shifters with good looks. What I like are the crisp shifting and easy braking. This is what one expects from this tier in SRAM. I do wish better graphics were on the shifters to standout, but that is just esthetic and not necessary in the grand scheme. What I hated with these and it is not a performance issue, but just something stupid by SRAM.....the fact a shifter/brake set come charged with DOT fluid!!!!! You have to bleed the darn things to install or at least for internal routed frames like my Cannondale SSE. Then you have to add it again and pressurize the system! Come on SRAM! Ship these dry! Ok.....off my soapbox. The D2 system is great!

The Sram Force AXS D2 shifter / calipers is definitly an upgrade from the current force and even the Red setups of which I have both on different bikes, one gravel and one road. I like the new ergonomics and feel as well as it seems they do exactly as described. If you are on a budget and don't mind the looks of the D1 model I say save some money and purchased one of the OEM kits available, if you like the looks and want the newest and slight improvements then get theses. Either way performance will be good.

Very well designed shifters crisply and quickly changing

Much better shape than the Force 1 mechanical shifters.
