Rear Derailleur Question
 
Hey guys! When I purchased a CAAD 9 three yrs ago, I immediately upgraded the components to Ultegra 6600. For the past year or so, I began switching components to SRAM (Red crank, Force front derailleur). Last week, I was lucky enough to win a bid on a Force shifters.

My question is, do I go with Force or Red rear derailleur? Is there a difference between the two in terms shifting?

Thanks.

I don't see much advantage with a red RD with Force shifters. I'd go Force RD. The red shifters give you zero loss on the rear shifts which is a step up (from what I've heard) but I don't think the derailleur gives you much difference beyond weight.
