Small changes can make a big difference. We’ve optimized the hood shape of Force AXS to provide more finger wrap for more hand sizes, so you can safely sprint for town lines, wrestle in a muddy CX race, or descend a long gravel descent. What hasn’t changed is the power and modulation of our acclaimed hydraulic disc brakes. Intuitive shifting and easy-to-find shift paddles make these controls, dare we say, truly shine. Left shifter/front brake. AXS compatible for easy installation. Etap for intuitive shifting. Carbon brake lever. Bleeding Edge technology for easy brake maintenance. Improved ergonomic hood caps for better grip.
