SRAM’s wireless electronic eTap groupset has been praised for its clean looks, easy setup and overall impressive shift performance. The missing piece of this wireless-shifting puzzle was a hydraulic disc brake version.
Now that hole has been plugged: the new RED eTap HRD group combines SRAM’s wireless shifting with updated hydraulic brakes.
SRAM Red eTap HRD details
- Same wireless protocol
- Refined hood shape
- Reach adjust as well as contact point adjustments
- Redesigned brake calipers
- Improved serviceability over SRAM HydroR groups
- Available in early 2017
Same shifting
The wireless shift technology carries over unchanged from the rim (and cable-actuated disc) version of eTap to this new group.
