Agreed. But at least it shifts well. My Force 22 on the race bike shifts endlessly better than my Red 10-speed, and previously Rival 10 speed. Shame about the cranks for sure.

Yeh, SRAM front shifting was always dodgy. A Shimano front mech would partly solve it. The chainrings with the cutouts in them were half the problem I think though.

I think they look fine. Force22 cranks look nicer - and weigh a few grams less - but I don't see anything wrong with the Rival crank, visually.

Looks good; nearly went for one of these frames myself, but the biggest size is still too small.
The previous generation SRAM Rival stuff looked good without the graphics; the new stuff seems to just have a cheaper finish, like the chainsets with the scalloped out arms, more akin to the Apex stuff.
