  Product Questions & Answers

Question:
Are Sram Groups (Force & Rival) compatible with other systems on the market?

Answer:
SRAM Exact Actuation components are compatible with the most prevalent, high quality 10-speed chains, cassettes, double crank sets and chainrings available in the market today. Force and Rival front shifters/derailleurs are designed together and cannot be mixed with other FD/SLs on the market. Force and Rival brake pads & cartridges are also interchangeable with Shimano D/a-10 compatible pads & cartridges.

Question:
What is the largest rear cog you can use with the Force or Rival rear derailleur? Other drive train capacities?

Answer:
The new Force and Rival rear derailleurs are designed to work down to an 11 tooth cog they will expand to a max 27 tooth rear cog. The Front derailleur will work with a 50 tooth, and up to a 54 tooth large chain ring, and is optimized for a 16 tooth max Large ring/Small ring differential.

Question:
How is the chain joined?

Answer:
Sram’s chain engineers have developed a new, super strong and consistent chain joining technology called PowerLock. Because of the high performance and strength requirements of ultra narrow 10- speed chains, Sram opted to avoid pin based joining technology, and take the subjective touch out of proper installation. The PowerLock is simple, very strong and installs securely every time.

Question:
What's the best way to clean my Sram PC 1050 10- Speed Chain w/ PowerLock?

Answer:
Sram recommends the following steps:

A. We suggest leaving the chain on the bike.
B. Wipe off any excess dirt, water, etc.
C. Apply your favorite bio- degreaser, agitate and then rinse/wipe it off.
D. Apply a coat of your favorite chain lube and then be sure to let it dry or at least sit for a bit.
E. Using a rag/shop towel remove any excess lubricant and "clean" off the side plates of the chain.
- lastly, feel free to repeat steps C and/or D more than once. You may find a combination that works better in your area.

Additionally, a lot of people that replace their chains often would actually skip step C and just go straight to step D. Also, if you feel the need to degrease the chain while it is off the bike, we would warn against letting a chain sit in solvent of any kind (kerosene, gasoline, SimpleGreen, bio- degreasers, etc.) for any length of time. And be sure to follow all dilution recommendations found on degreasing products.
