$600 for a modern rim brake wireless group set equivalent to DuraAce is something I hope we can all appreciate. The bike industry needs to wake up with their pricing. I hope companies like wheeltop make huge advances in the market and purchasing Rotor is a big move
No idea about electronic derailleurs but can the pinions indexing be programmed differently relative to the bigger/smaller front plate? I ask cos i use mtb pinions 11-42 for my 2 by gravel bike, although i have it sort of hacked, a "smart" electronic derailleur could potentially solve all the crappy issues i'm dealing with.
with this one, theoretically yes! could be actually a really good and easy way to have huge gearing ranges, without overlap in gears (blocking things out) and that would make for a more simple rear derailleur
Yeah, I think a lot of people reviewing this dont account for the benifits quite enough, I'm used to working on things that need a little tinkering and this company seems really quick to adapt to any bugs in their product. I also like their ideas of having adjustable speeds in software and the ability to so easily tinker and re-map groupset features.
Wolfgang with the world’s fasted unboxing!
Enjoyed the video bud, great work🤙
Thanks Chris!

u reckon oval chainrings would work on them?
Yeah, looks like it would clear and function the same as any groupset!

i think u can just use the gravel RD with a regular FD

@@williamrhardin Thanks! That's really interesting, bigger chainrings front and back would be ideal for me
I was quite excited when this first come out but reviews haven't been too good so far... Will wait a while to see how they progress...

why do you switch bikes so often?
team changes, trying stuff that companies send me, and different race requirements!
