Product Details

Overview & Technology

Genuine SRAM Red 2012 left/front shift lever assembly engineered for precision shifting and a race-oriented feel. This factory replacement lever (Mfg. Part #: 11.7018.005.001, SRAM Model ID: SB-SPP-A0) is the correct front/left component for SRAM Red 2012 DoubleTap brake-shifter bodies. The assembly combines lightweight machined alloy components with durable composite detailing and corrosion-resistant stainless pivot hardware to keep actuation crisp in all conditions. Its Ergodymanic profile is sculpted for predictable thumb and finger placement, reducing hand fatigue on long road rides and attacks alike.

Key Features & Real‑World Benefits

Precision feel out of the box: The lever assembly is built to reproduce the original Red 2012 actuation — firm, short throws with positive engagement. That means faster front shifts and a secure, predictable interface under load. • Factory-fit replacement — installs into the Red 2012 left shifter body without modification. • Lightweight construction — low rotating mass helps keep overall cockpit weight down and preserves the Red group’s race-oriented balance. • Durable pivots and surfaces — corrosion-resistant hardware and wear-resistant contact points extend service life.

Fit, Compatibility & Installation

This part is specified as the left/front shift lever assembly for SRAM Red 2012 DoubleTap systems. Confirm your shifter body is a Red 2012 generation unit before ordering — the part number (11.7018.005.001) and SRAM Model ID (SB-SPP-A0) are printed on original components. Installation is straightforward for mechanics familiar with road STI/DoubleTap lever service: remove the hood and brake lever as needed, slide the replacement lever into the shifter body, and secure with the original fasteners. If your levers are older or heavily worn, inspect the shifter body and springs during the swap and consider replacing worn small parts to restore full performance.

Who This Part Is For

This lever assembly is for road riders, mechanics and restorers who own or maintain bikes equipped with SRAM Red 2012 DoubleTap shifters. It's ideal for racers, club riders and vintage-group rebuilds who want an authentic, OEM-level replacement. If you ride aggressively or race and need crisp front shifting from an older Red cockpit, this genuine SRAM lever returns the original ergonomics and actuation designed by SRAM for the 2012 Red family.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will this lever fit my SRAM Red 2012 shifter body?

Yes — this is the OEM left/front lever assembly designed specifically for SRAM Red 2012 DoubleTap shifter bodies. Check your existing part number or SRAM model ID to confirm a match before purchase.

Can I install this myself or should a mechanic do it?

A competent home mechanic can install this lever with basic tools and a bit of patience. You’ll need to remove the hood and follow standard shifter service steps. If you’re unsure, a professional bike mechanic can fit and set up the lever quickly.

Does this include small parts like springs or screws?

This listing is for the lever assembly itself. Many installs reuse the original small parts, but if your hardware is corroded or missing we recommend replacing the springs, pins, and screws — check compatibility with SRAM Red 2012 service kits.

Is this compatible with newer SRAM Red models (post‑2012)?

No — SRAM changes internal geometry and actuation between generations. This lever is intended for the 2012 Red generation. It may not be compatible with later Red 22/RS models; verify generation match before buying.

What are the shipping dimensions and weight?

The part ships compactly: 3.7" x 2.8" x 1.3" and weighs approximately 0.05 lb, making it a lightweight, low-volume replacement part for fast delivery.

Buying Guide

When buying a replacement lever for a road DoubleTap shifter, always match generation and side — left/front vs right/rear — and use the manufacturer part number as your primary reference. Genuine OEM parts like this SRAM 11.7018.005.001 lever deliver the intended ergonomics and actuation that aftermarket or generic levers may not reproduce. Also consider the condition of small internal parts: springs, pins and fasteners. If your lever is worn or the shifter has high mileage, pair the new lever with a service kit or professional tune-up to restore original performance and extend the lifespan of the whole shifter assembly.
