eTap BlipBox A1

SRAM's eTap has been a revelation for road bikes. Setup is super easy and with no shifter cable and housing, looks very clean and the group executes shifts accurately and with precision. With eTap shifter/brake levers for drop bars, it and any Blip remotes plugged in it communicate wirelessly with the front and rear derailleurs. If you're looking to run eTap on your triathlon or TT bike and want to run Blip remotes on the aero extensions and the base bar, you'll need to plug the Blips into SRAM's eTap BlipBox A1 for the wireless magic to happen.

The BlipBox manages the wireless shifting via AIREA, SRAM’s proprietary 128-bit encryption communication protocol, turning your clicks into derailleur movement. This setup gives you the ability to place remote shifters in various position, adapting to your aero position instead of the other way around. BlipBox allows for two remotes per size for a total of four inputs. It weighs in at 31 grams and comes with a mount or fits standard Garmin mounts.
