CeramicSpeed Alpha RS OSPW for SRAM RED/Force

CeramicSpeed Alpha RS OSPW for SRAM RED/Force

The CeramicSpeed Alpha RS OSPW for SRAM RED/Force is the most advanced oversized pulley wheel from CeramicSpeed. Built for riders who demand the most efficient drivetrain possible, this system combines cutting-edge design with premium materials. Featuring a lightweight carbon fiber derailleur cage and redesigned shape, the Alpha RS OSPW is lighter and stiffer than ever. The updated cage design not only improves aesthetics, but also makes the derailleur cage stronger. This provides better shifting, especially under load.

Additionally, this OSPW features premium ceramic bearings and 15T upper and 19T lower oversized pulleys. This minimizes chain articulation which reduces drag and improves chain life. The Active Debris Remover shields also make it virtually impossible for debris to enter the bearings. Whether you race, train or simply want the best, the Alpha RS OWSP is a premium upgrade for SRAM RED or Force rear derailleurs.

Please note, it is recommended to use a new chain as the CeramicSpeed OSPW system requires a longer chain than the stock derailleur cage.
