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

If you are how you liking it? My wife's bike with Apex got me hooked on SRAM because of the insanely comfortable hoods and Force 22 seems to be the groupset to get with the yaw FR, chain stop, fully adjustable levers among other things and price is right.

I actually just upgraded my bike to this from the SRAM Apex, pretty much insofar as bang for you buck it was the best option that I could find and the response time on shifting is fantastic. I personally am a SRAM fan for the same reasons because I started on the Apex and so far I have been very pleased with the performance of the Force 22.

I have two nearly identical bikes, one with a RED Yaw FD and corresponding crank and one with a pre-Yaw Force FD. Yaw shifts a little better, but it's not a huge difference. I use K-edge chain keeper with the Force FD. I'm guessing you can find some pretty good deals the pre 22 Force group/coponents.
