The SRAM Force AXS D2 front derailleur embodies the excellence of wireless shifting for 2x12 speed road groupsets. Designed to deliver ultra-fast, silent, and absolutely precise chainring shifts, it leverages all of SRAM's expertise in electronic shifting. Thanks to Yaw trimless technology, micro-adjustments are a thing of the past: the cage automatically pivots to maintain a constant angle with the chain, eliminating any friction across the entire cassette. Optimized for X-Range chainrings with a 13-tooth gap (46/33T, 48/35T, or 50/37T), this derailleur mounts in Braze-On configuration on frames with angles from 61 to 66 degrees and a standard 45 mm chainline. Fully integrated into the AXS ecosystem, it offers simple setup via the SRAM app and complete customization of your shifting preferences.

Technical Highlights

• Yaw technology without micro-adjustments: The derailleur cage pivots to maintain a constant angle with the chain, ensuring direct, precise, and friction-free chainring shifts, regardless of position on the cassette.
• AXS wireless transmission: Wireless connectivity for a clean installation, cable-free, with complete customization via the SRAM AXS app (battery status, component behavior, firmware updates).
• Intuitive eTap logic: Right lever to shift harder, left lever to shift easier, both levers together to change chainrings — a simple, intuitive, and foolproof shifting logic.
• X-Range optimization: Specifically designed for the 13-tooth gap between SRAM X-Range chainrings, enabling ultra-fast and reliable shifts on 46/33T, 48/35T, or 50/37T combinations.
• Silent and efficient: Chainring shifts that are not only fast and precise, but also silent across all gear ratios, for a smooth and friction-free riding experience.

Specifications and Compatibility

• System compatibility: Fully compatible with all SRAM AXS wireless shifting systems, for seamless integration with AXS shifters, rear derailleurs, and power meters.
• Braze-On mounting: Direct attachment to frames equipped with a braze-on mount, with compatible frame angles from 61 to 66 degrees and standard 45 mm chainline.
• Contained weight: Only 156 g for the braze-on version, an excellent weight-to-performance ratio for a high-end electronic derailleur.
• Quality materials: Aluminum construction for an optimal balance between lightness, stiffness, and durability, ensuring years of reliable performance.

AXS Setup and Customization

The AXS integration radically simplifies initial setup and enables complete customization of your drivetrain. Via the SRAM AXS app (iOS and Android), you can monitor battery charge status, modify component behavior (sequential or compensating shift modes), customize controls according to your preferences, receive maintenance reminders, and update firmware. The AXS battery (sold separately, reference SRAM eTap AXS) is interchangeable between front and rear derailleurs, facilitating battery life management. Installation is quick and intuitive, with alignment and tightening tools provided, without complex battery manipulation.

Road Performance and Crankset Compatibility

This front derailleur is designed for eTap AXS cranksets with standard chainline and integrates perfectly with modern road drivetrains. Compatible with chainrings up to 50 teeth for maximum speed on the road, it offers a wide and progressive gear range. Road cyclists, endurance riders, or Gran Fondo enthusiasts will appreciate the smoothness of chainring shifts, instant responsiveness to every input, and total absence of friction thanks to Yaw. For Gravel configurations or wide tires, SRAM offers a Wide version (reference 00.7618.177.000) optimized for 43/30T chainrings and offering increased clearance (700x45C or 27.5x2.1").
