SRAM Force 22

[SquareDaff]

Can anyone tell me if the SRAM Force 22 front derailleur is dual pull or has a top pull option? I have a top pull frame that I'm looking at buying the Force 22 groupset for but can't find any details.

The yaw design doesn't work with top pull IIRC

One of these? http://www.sjscycles.co.uk/problem-solvers-cross-clamp-and-pulley-prod38171/

That would certainly do the job. I've seen the Boardman CRX9.2 uses Force 22 as it's groupset. Does anyone have one of these? Is that how it's done?

Pass

My other option is to go for Di2 and Shimano's hydraulic 785 system disc brakes - which I half minded to do.

Force 22 has a yawing front mech, hence the 22. I prefer mechanical over electronic every day, and the SRAM 22 is very nice.

I have rival 22 and it's superb. Have another bike en-route equipped with it also, couldn't justify an extra £200 for Force when Rival is equivalent to 105 and just as good

I have Force 22 on my cannondale supersix evo. It's very clean an precise. I really like it

Quick update - I went with Shimano Ultegra Di2 - which I build up bit my bit myself, after a lot of research. That's now wired into the frame - currently looking at cranks.
