Using the C2Max 2:1 proven carbohydrate mix, IsoActive offers 116KCal and 420mg of sodium per 33g serving mixes extremely easily in 500ml water and boasts a new range of improved, natural flavourings. Directions for Use For best results, mix 33g (approximately 1.5 measuring spoons – measuring spoon included) with 500ml of water. Drink approximately 150-200ml every 15 minutes during exercise. Drink before exercise as required.
Designed for use immediately after exercise, Recovery Active drink is easily mixed into a drink to refill depleted energy stores and provide the muscles with the protein needed to repair and build. Essential minerals and vitamins also boost the immune system and help combat tiredness and fatigue. Carbohydrates contribute to the recovery of normal muscle function (contraction) after highly intensive and/or longlasting physical exercise leading to muscle fatigue and the depletion of glycogen stores in skeletal muscle - The beneficial effect is obtained with the consumption of carbohydrates, from all sources, at a total intake of 4 g per kg body weight, at doses, within the first 4 hours and no later than 6 hours, following highly intensive and/or long-lasting physical exercise leading to muscle fatigue and the depletion of glycogen stores in skeletal muscle. Directions for Use Mix 55g (approximately 3 measuring spoons – included) with 200ml of water. For best results consume 1 serving of Recovery Activity per day, immediately after exercise. Consume as part of a varied and balanced diet and a healthy lifestyle.
Never miss a turn, always hit the right braking point and easily spot the landing off that big booter, the Velocity 6.5 Iriz Fuel Red Goggles make sure you always enjoy a clear view of whatever the trail throws your way. It's the WideVision (170°) RideViz Mirror lens that gives you a supremely wide view of where you're headed. Meanwhile, with the permanent anti-fog function built in, you'll also enjoy a mist-free view of the trails. Leatt's self-draining frame design also allows mud and muck to slop off the lense unimpeded. Lastly, when Leatt say the lenses are bulletproof, they're not wrong, having tested them to Military Ballistic Impact Standard (MIL-DTL-43511D). Stone strikes will be easily shrugged off, even at high speeds. The 6.5s are also Roll-Off ready, with posts and a Tear-Off pack included, ready for those super-sloppy, wet and muddy days on the mountain bike that always leaves you with a grin on your mud-cacked face. If you happen to wear glasses then you'll love the Over-The-Glasses fit and the wide outriggers and 50mm anti-slip strap work brilliantly with almost all helmets. Mountain biking is a sweaty business, but the dual-layer, anti-sweat face foam keeps comfort levels high and ensures sweat can't sting the eyes.
The SRAM Red chainset features a completely hollow construction all the way to the spider. Its hidden bolt pattern in the drive side crank arm makes better use of carbon fibre to further improve stiffness and shed weight. Plus, to ensure seamless, flawless performance and Yaw™ front derailleur compatibility, this is paired with X-GlideR™ chainrings. This version of the SRAM Red BB30 chainset uses the BB30 bottom bracket system and with its larger 30mm spindle, it ensures efficient and flex-free power transfer. It's also available with a standard Road 53/39T chainring setup, making it ideal for time trial and racing use, where you need ultimate acceleration to be first over the line. Or, if you're looking more an option to make climbing a little easier for longer rides, there is a semi-compact 52/36T option too. Technologies: Exogram™: The updated Hollow Carbon Construction starts in the crank arm and extends into the cranks' spider. It maximises the stiffness to weight ratio X-GlideR Chainrings: The chainrings are designed for an optimised shifting performance with the Yaw front derailleur. The stiffer rings (5mm 7075-T6 aluminium CNC-machined) feature upshift rivets with an advanced design adopted from SRAM XX. CNC machining allows for precision control of each tooth shape, ramp, and nearly every shifting feature of the chainring. The chainrings, chain, and front derailleur are designed as a single integrated system for optimised performance
We at SRAM believe - our competition has followed, so they clearly believe - as do our professional and amateur athletes. Quite simply, our 2015 HydroR technology is the fulfillment of the promise of better braking, more control, and improved performance in all conditions. For 2015 we have several road groupsets featuring a broad complement of hydraulic braking options for both rim and disc brake bikes. Each delivering on the promise of braking confidence and security that brings speed control and stability to a new level.
The SRAM RED 22 ErgoDynamic™ Shifters continue our philosophy of perfecting the interface between rider and bike. We have scrutinized everything, including the transition between handlebar and hoods, the grip texture, finger wrap, and the separate interfaces with both the shifter and brake lever. The result is an extremely comfortable, highly individual fit that makes the shifters feel like a natural extension of the rider. Benefits The ErgoFit textured body improves grip and finger wrap with reduced diameter, providing better control, and a better transition to the bar. This will offer a more comfortable grip on the bar without compromising performance. Individual Reach Adjust of brake and shift lever, is now easier to access than ever via hex key adjustment to position the levers to your personal preference. The Larger Carbon shifting Blade improves ease of shifting from the drops as well as on the hoods. DoubleTap© technology delivers both shifts from the single lever, limiting the possibility of miss-shifting. The ZeroLoss™ shifting ensures that shifts engage without any delay.
BLINK OF AN EYE Be it the fireworks of a finale, an ideal rhythm, climbing on the top, or a deep, dark place extracting the last kilojoule of effort on your bike split, you want to adjust your gear with the twitch of a finger.
The SRAM XG1190 road bike cassette is super light, deadly silent, and delivers an undeniable performance advantage. The nine cogs in the cog cluster are machined from a single block of high-grade tool steel, increasing stiffness while weighing even less than a titanium cassette. Between each cog is a StealthRing elastomer to reduce vibration and noise. Cutouts on the rear cog further reduce weight and add stiffness. It's the final piece in the drivetrain puzzle, paired with the new SRAM Red Rear Derailleur, delivers ultra-fast, ultra-quiet shifts that will always put you in the right gear.
Instead of simply moving back and forth, the derailleur cage actually rotates to maintain a consistent angular relationship with the chain. We call it Yaw Technology, and it eliminates the need for shifter trim. As a result, shifts feel more direct, more precise, and combined with the new SRAM RED crankset and chainrings, delivers an unmatched performance advantage in front shifting.

The derailleur is designed with our Exact Actuation technology for precise, efficient shifting. We have paid special attention to the finer details, like adding a hollow titanium anchor bolt and even refining tooth geometry of the jockey wheel. The result is that the chain runs through the rear Derailleur smoother and quieter than ever before.
