SRAM's new Red AXS groupset is claimed to be the world's lightest electronic disc brake road bike groupset, saving 154g versus the previous generation. Priced from around £4,090 / $4,090 / €4,135, the groupset is fully wireless, with a new lever and hood design, increased brake adjustability, and improved braking performance from the hoods. Front shifting is also claimed to be faster and smoother. In this episode of the BikeRadar Podcast, senior technical editor Warren Rossiter shares his thoughts on the revised shifter ergonomics, enhanced braking and shifting changes with deputy editor Jack Luke and senior technical writer Simon von Bromley. 2024 SRAM Red AXS groupset review: https://www.bikeradar.com/reviews/components/groupsets/groupset-road/sram-red-axs-review Hands-on with SRAM Red AXS | Real weights vs Shimano Dura-Ace Di2: https://www.bikeradar.com/features/tech/2024-sram-red-axs-weights New SRAM Red AXS is the world’s lightest electronic disc brake groupset: https://www.bikeradar.com/news/new-sram-red-axs New Hammerhead Karoo integrates with SRAM AXS and improves GPS accuracy: https://www.bikeradar.com/news/2024-hammerhead-karoo Learn more about your ad choices.
