    That's it! I knew I'd heard S-Ram before. I think that's why I assumed it was pronounced the same way! Not that I've ever had to say it out loud, I've got Shimano on all the bikes I look after.

    Shall I confuse you lot by asking the difference between a 4T SRAM Cell and a 6T SRAM Cell?
    I used to just ride my bike to work but now I find myself going out looking for bigger and bigger hills.

    the 4T has 10 times lower power dissipation than the 6T?
    my isetta is a 300cc bike

    Q: What does SRAM mean?

    R: SRAM is the conglomeration of our founder's [sic] names, Scott, Ray and sAM.

    So should it be pronounced S R AM then?
