Product Details

Overview & Technology

SRAM Force22 Pulley Set is the OEM replacement pulley pair engineered specifically for SRAM Force22 rear derailleurs (Manufacturer Part # 11.7518.026.000, Model ID RD‑SPP‑A0). These pulleys are designed to reproduce the original shift feel and chain path geometry of your Force22 drivetrain so service or part replacement keeps performance true to the factory standard. Construction and internals combine precision-machined bearing seats with sealed cartridge bearings and high-durability pulley wheels to reduce friction and resist contamination. The small footprint (shipping dims 5.6" x 3.7" x 0.7", weight 0.1 lb) makes them a lightweight, direct-swap maintenance item that returns crisp operation without re-indexing your whole drivetrain.

Key Features & Benefits

Durable materials: The pulley set pairs robust wheel bodies with precision bearing components to withstand repeated use and road grit. The low-friction bearing assembly helps maintain consistent shifting under load and in wet conditions. Real-world benefits: Replacing worn pulleys removes lateral play and friction that cause noisy, slow or imprecise shifts. Riders get quicker, more confident gear changes and slightly improved drivetrain efficiency without replacing the entire derailleur.

Fit, Installation & Compatibility

This pulley set is compatible with SRAM Force22 rear derailleurs and sold under part number 11.7518.026.000. It’s a direct replacement for the OEM pulley wheels and installs in the same location with the factory bolts — no modifications required. Check your derailleur model ID (RD‑SPP‑A0) to confirm fit. Installation tips: remove the derailleur cage, swap the upper and lower pulleys noting orientation, clean the cage and bolt threads, then torque bolts to the manufacturer's specification. A light dab of grease on the bolt threads helps prevent galvanic corrosion and eases future removal; avoid packing grease into the bearing seals.

Who This Pulley Set Is For

This is a maintenance and repair item for road cyclists running SRAM Force22 groupsets who want to restore original shifting performance without upgrading the entire derailleur. It’s ideal for mechanics, club riders, and racers who value precise indexing and quiet drivetrain operation. If your shifts are sluggish, noisy or the upper/lower pulleys show visible wear or side‑to‑side play, replacing the pulley set is a cost-effective way to regain smooth shifting and extend the life of your cassette and chain.

Frequently Asked Questions

Will these pulleys fit my SRAM Force22 derailleur?

Yes — this pulley set is the OEM replacement specifically for SRAM Force22 derailleurs and is labeled part number 11.7518.026.000 (Model ID RD‑SPP‑A0). Confirm your derailleur is a Force22 model before ordering.

Can I upgrade to ceramic bearings or a different pulley?

This listing is for the OEM Force22 pulley set. While aftermarket pulleys with ceramic bearings or oversized designs exist, they may change chainline and shift feel. If you choose upgrades, ensure compatibility with Force22 geometry and cage clearance.

How often should I replace derailleur pulleys?

Replacement frequency depends on use and conditions. As a rule, inspect pulleys whenever you replace the chain or cassette — high-mileage riders or those in wet/gritty environments may need new pulleys every 6–12 months, while casual riders will typically replace them less frequently.

Are special tools required to install these pulleys?

No special tools are required beyond standard hex/allen keys and a torque wrench if you want to match SRAM torque specs. Removing the derailleur cage is straightforward; keep fasteners and orientation consistent during reassembly.

Do these pulleys come pre-greased or sealed?

The pulleys use sealed cartridge bearings designed to keep contamination out; they do not require greasing during installation. Avoid packing grease into the bearing seals — a light grease on bolt threads is recommended to prevent corrosion.

Will new pulleys improve shifting if my chain and cassette are worn?

New pulleys reduce friction and lateral play, which helps shifting, but the best results come from replacing worn chains and cassettes as well. If the chain or cassette teeth are worn, pulleys alone may not fully restore optimal shifting.

Buying Guide

When replacing derailleur pulleys, prioritize exact compatibility with your derailleur model and part number — Force22 pulleys are engineered to the factory chain path and spacing. If your drivetrain components (chain, cassette, chainrings) show heavy wear, consider replacing those items with the pulleys to fully restore shift quality. Decide between OEM replacement and aftermarket options by weighing cost vs. expected performance gains. OEM pulleys like this Force22 set reliably restore factory feel and require no geometry changes, while specialty pulleys may offer marginal bearing improvements at the cost of compatibility risk.
