It's so true. Leave the past in the past, modern kit is what you want. I begrudgingly moved to discs brakes, complaining the whole time, but I'll never go back to rims. I begrudgingly moved to DI2, again complaining, and again I'll never go back. Thru axles > QR. 12-spd > 9/10 spd. The new equipment is just so much better!
I have a rim brake mechanical road bike and a disc brake di2 road bike. Both are great. Both have their positives and negatives. The new stuff is not definitively better, just different.
New equipment is good, but there's nothing wrong with the old stuff. Recently picked up a 2013 Domane with full 6700 Ultegra (rim and mechanical). For riding in dry conditions I prefer the feel of the modulation with the rim brakes over my GRX discs.
George you've been crushing it with these videos, man. Really enjoy what you've been doing. Cheers.
Aww that’s very kind sir!!
Looks a happy customer! Good things happen to good people!

Enjoy your new bike. I would visit your shop if I was closer. Are you selling more Sram than Shimano?
Personally I prefer Shimano but whatever the customer prefers the customer gets 😊
@@SeeYouUpTheRoad I ride both (mechanical) & prefer Shimano.
