Tight, snappy 11-speed road shifting for riders running a close-ratio cassette. The SRAM Rival 22 short-cage rear derailleur keeps the chain taut and shifts crisp, making it the ideal match for flatter, faster setups where you want quick, precise gear changes.

Why you'll like it

  • Short cage suits close-ratio cassettes up to 28T for tidy chain management
  • Exact Actuation cable pull delivers precise, repeatable shifts that are easy to dial in
  • AeroGlide pulleys run quietly and smoothly under power
  • Aluminium inner and outer cage keeps weight low while staying stiff and durable
  • Proven SRAM mechanical 11-speed performance at an accessible price

Built for fast riding

The short cage carries a 28T maximum cog and a 33-tooth total capacity, keeping the cage compact and the chain tight. That makes it well suited to road racing and fast group riding where you favour tighter gear steps over a wide bailout range.

Smooth, quiet shifting

SRAM's Exact Actuation (1:1) cable pull pairs with the AeroGlide pulley wheels to deliver fast, defined gear changes with minimal drivetrain noise. The aluminium parallelogram and cage hold their alignment for consistent indexing.

Compatibility and fit

Designed for SRAM 11-speed road mechanical shift systems using Exact Actuation. Pair it with an 11-speed road cassette up to 28T and a compatible 11-speed chain. Mounts to a standard rear derailleur hanger.
