The SRAM Force 22 Yaw front derailleur eliminates front trim adjustments — the cage rotates (yaws) as the rear derailleur moves, automatically maintaining chain clearance across the cassette range. No more mid-ride trim tweaks or ghost rub from the cage. It's a genuinely practical improvement to road shifting ergonomics at Force groupset level.

Highlights

  • SRAM Force 22 2x11 front derailleur with Yaw technology
  • Yaw cage rotation eliminates front trim adjustments
  • Compatible with DoubleTap levers for clean front shifting
  • Designed for road chainrings in the 48–46 to 53–50 tooth range (confirm with your specific build)
  • Braze-on mount

Yaw technology

Traditional front derailleurs require trim positions to prevent chain rub at the cage when using certain rear cassette positions. SRAM's Yaw design moves the cage laterally as the chain angle changes — the cage tracks the chain rather than requiring manual trim input. The result is a cleaner, simpler front shift interface for road riding.

Fit and compatibility

SRAM Force 22 2x11 Yaw front derailleur, braze-on mount. Compatible with SRAM Force DoubleTap shifters and Force 22 cranksets. Confirm chainring size range and frame mount type before ordering.
