Looking for feedback from SRAM users

[nscrbug]

So yesterday I was able to test ride a Felt F3 with SRAM Red and a Madone 6.1 with SRAM Force. Both bikes were too big for me, but that didn't matter as I was really only testing the components. I have no doubt in my mind that I am a SRAM convert. I loved everything about it. It felt smooth and easy to me. The best part was that I didn't find myself having to take my eyes off the road to look down and see if my chain was on the ring. I have no idea when or if it will happen, but my next bike will most definitely be SRAM. Makes it that much harder to get back on my Shimano-equipped bike, knowing that I love the SRAM stuff that much more.

SRAM is nice. I have it on two of my bikes.

I did like SRAM when I tested it. At the end, I went with the Synapse 3 because I did not want to go over my budget. It is also lighter, at every level, than Shimano. SRAM is based in Chicago, so spare parts arrive pretty fast.
