Amazon have been really good recently with SRAM prices for road bits anyway...(that's all I've been looking at)

Ordered these yesterday and got them today. Cheapest I've seen anywhere and I've been holding back buying to complete my switch over to SRAM Force.

Just a wee heads up for anyone else interested good for CX too.

Is it definitely c. £125 for a pair then? If you hadn't received them already I'd be suspicious it was just the front (ie. yaw as in front mech) for that money.

If for the pair seems like a steal!

Thanks for the tip off.

Hoping to get a complete force group set for £400ish picking the right sales

Good link I would like to try Sram. What's the difference between standard and yaw front.

That's a good question. I though that the 'yaw' was in the front mech geometry, not the shifter or cable pull.

I bought a set of Force 22 shifters a few weeks ago and as you would expect they work great with a Yaw Force front mech. There was no mention on the box of them being Yaw or Standard type.

SRAMs 2016 tech doch suggest that there are Yaw and Non-Yaw versions for 10 speed shifters, but no difference for 11 speed.

IANAE but my understanding is that the 11 spd group front mechs are all Yaw ones (?) and that all it does is rotate the entire front mech slightly when switching from small to big and vice versa to help avoid rubbing on the cage.

I am sure an expert will be along shortly but that's how I've interpreted it. In real life (having fitted both) it doesn't seem to have made any huge difference other than the front mech being a bit trickier to fit and set up!
