In love. It's guarenteed!

The Shimano electric shifting is great!

It appears very precise.  Small push on the lever and the gear change happens.

Who's tried it?

What did you think?

Who actually has it?  (and what sort of salary are you on...)

Brett Hadley has it on his new road bike and thinks highly of it.

No lawyers I know have it - too dear.  Hadley is too small so I can not wait for his next upgrade - commando?

Well, no merger so far....

Iv used it on a bike in a shop, however havent ridden on it. Seems very nice and looks very functionable.  I can dream for now.

Metro, Snedden, Hilljockey et al,

It must be good stuff. I saw Hadley prancing around on it this weekend and he didn't trouble anyone in B grade. It might be functionable but if you don't have a motor, Shimano Di2 is just another grouppo. maybe HD should have a Shimano Di2 race...........Hadley might win something then. Shalom

Ferret,

You might be a little more understanding of Brett - he was "johnny on the spot" at the crash yesterday and understandibly his head (and it seems also his legs) were not in it.  He still lead the ultimate winner out - he was in front until 150m to the finish.

Metro,

Touche son. Understood. But in my time, The Ferret has known many people who have been in front with 150m to go................and run nowhere. Shalom

Snedden,

If The Ferret's mail is correct (and we all know the answer to that) who in their right mind would let you test ride ANYTHING with your current ability in laying the bike down 3 times in 8 days?
