About The SRAM Force 22 11-Speed Rear Derailleur
The SRAM Force 22 is a mechanical 11-speed road rear derailleur built with carbon fiber and aluminum to keep weight down. It was SRAM's second-tier road derailleur of the 22 generation and pairs with 11-speed DoubleTap shifters.
This listing offers two versions: a standard short cage in gray and a WiFLi medium cage in black for larger cassettes. SRAM lists a 28t or 32t maximum cog and 33t or 37t chain wrap capacity across the two.
Who It's For
- Road riders keeping an 11-speed SRAM Force 22 or Red 22 group running.
- Riders who want the WiFLi medium cage to fit a larger rear cog on a 2x road bike.
- Consider a different derailleur if you are on 12-speed AXS or a 1x drivetrain.
What to Look For
- Cage: Short cage for close-ratio road cassettes; WiFLi medium cage for the larger cassette option.
- Shifter pull: SRAM Exact Actuation 11-speed road.
- Availability: Check which version is in stock before ordering.
Key Features
Carbon and aluminum construction. Light materials and stainless steel hardware at a competition level. SRAM lists weights of 178 g and 186 g across the versions.
Cartridge bearing pulleys. Sealed bearings in the pulleys help them run smoothly over time.
Simple setup. SRAM designed Force 22 for straightforward installation and adjustment with standard hanger mounting.
Rider Intent Summary
- Biggest strengths: Light carbon-and-alloy build; a WiFLi option for bigger cogs.
- Tradeoffs: 11-speed only; no clutch.
- What makes it different: A lightweight 2x road derailleur that keeps a Force 22 group original.
Victory's Take
We use the Force 22 to restore 11-speed SRAM road bikes rather than replace the whole group. Victory Bicycle Studio can confirm which cage your cassette needs.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you offer free shipping?
We do offer free shipping on non-bike orders over $100. We do not offer free shipping for bicycles unless it is a one time promotion. Generally, bike shipping will cost $150 and that covers just the shipping of the bike with no assembly. If you were to bring that bike to your local mechanic or bike store, you would pay them their assembly fee. If you choose our Professional Assembly option for $200, our service technicians would assemble the bike before shipping and then re-pack the bike safely for transit. When you receive the bike you would attach the front wheel, attach the seatpost/saddle, and raise the handlebars and clamp them. Those three items do have to be detached to minimize or eliminate the chance of damage in transit.
How much does shipping cost?
For orders of parts, accessories, apparel, etc. on orders under $100, shipping is a flat rate of $9.99. Regular bike shipping without assembly is $150, bike shipping with Professional Assembly is an additional $200 (so $350 in total which includes the $150 of regular shipping). Our White Glove Delivery option is $699 and that will cover the assembly of the bike and our White Glove Delivery partner delivering your dream bike to your front door, ready to ride!
