got the option of upgrading my mint force (3yrs old) shifters and rear mech for red. I will have to add a bit of cash after selling the force set and paying the difference but in real cycling terms is there is any difference in performance apart from weight and pose value ?

No.

Particularly with new Red coming out soon I'd not bother, if nothing else the old stuff will go cheap.

No. And as njee pointed, out, definitely not when you consider there'll be a new version of it soon.

Though women will swoon as you pass if you have Red 😉

Gore cables and a Ti bar clamp bolt I think. I'd not bother, In fact I didn't! had the choice between the two and opted for Force everytime in a bang for buck basis.

Not really any. We put Force on all our super-expensive Look frames.
