Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

SRAM Force - When is the next big change?

I know that SRAM Force is "new" for 2012, with previous-year Red shifters & chainrings.
Is there a timetable for a group overhaul?
Can we expect a YAW FD?

I may order a Domane P1 with Force, and I'd hate to miss out on a group change by a short time

Thanks

Probably in 2016 when the 2012 Red gets replaced... Is the old red titanium FD making its way to the 2013 Force, or are they just keeping the 2010? From the gruppo pic it is hard to tell.

Way to early to tell. SRAM does their road releases at Sea Otter. So you'll find out then if there is anything new.

Actually its 2013 for the Red chainrings and shifters. I use Force on two of my bikes with it spec'd for a third. I love the stuff, best higher end group out there.
While I also ride Dura-Ace/Ult. gear, force is super quality and snap out loud shifting.
