Spendy but worth it for my needs

- I've used it once or twice and have initial impressions
I have SRAM RED22 eTap, 2016, which is the short cage, max 28 tooth on the cassette. With 20,000km on it I needed to replace the pulley wheels which was going to be $120 and since moving to the Northwest I rarely have a ride with less than 1,000 meters of climbing and often have 14-18% grades to deal with so I wanted the ability to got to an 11-30 or 11-32 cassette. One option was to purchase a new WiFLi mid cage eTap rear derailleur, not a cheap option either. So all in going to the Ceramicspeed OPWS ends up being a somewhat less expensive though still pricey alternative. Installing the OPWS on the RED22 eTap rear derailleur replacing the stock short cage is pretty easy. Watch the video and if you are reasonably good with tools this is a 30 minute job the first time, I could probably do it in 15 minutes the second time around. I run a 50/34 chainwheel set up and with an 11-30 cassette the chain length ended up being full length on a SRAM RED22 chain minus just two links. Make some minor adjustments and out the door. From a shifting perspective I went with the

Hey Charles and Charles D! This particular version of the OSPW system only works with the newest series of Shimano derailleur (9100/8000). If you have the previous series (9000, 6800/6870), it's not going to work. Please feel free to reach out to us directly if you have any more questions!

Glad to know this works. I spend half the year where it is dead flat and a 25 on the rear is enough, but each summer we spend in the Blue Ridge where the first 30 minutes out my door is a 680 meter climb; I was looking for a "budget" way to fit a 32 on the back and saw this said it fits. Thanks for confirming.
