Hi
Any noticeable difference between the Sram Force 2.1 and newer 3.0 versions? Interested mostly in reduction of chain slap.
Thanks

I have both and can’t really tell the difference. I have read some people saying the 2.1 can wear out and the 3.0 is more durable, but I’ve never had issues with either.

Same. I think the 2.1 is easier to clean/rebuild. I did this once and won't do it again.
