in shortly, the new Shimano Ui2 Electronic Shifting. Shimano's
second generation of the electronic group may actually eclipse
the original -
Di2
is Here. Since we're getting all
electronic, how about batteries to help you shift rather than
helping you pedal. I know all you "nay sayers" are rolling your
eyes. Why electronic shifting? Yes a cable can and has moved a
derailleur effectively for years. But what you can't do with a
cable is program it. This is where the electronic shifting has
surpassed the mechanical systems. The fact that the shifter and
derailleur "know" what gear your in and perform their actions
accordingly. It would be like taking someone that knows what
they are doing and all you have to do is push a button to make
them go. For most people this hits home when they see the Di2
front derailleur automatically trim over to avoid chain rub as
they shift through the gears. Did I also mention that there are
now no cables to get dirty, degrade or need to be replaced.
Electronic automatically adjusts and stays where you put it time
after time. Pretty cool. Check out the photo gallery for a
few shots of Di2
Now available the Endura line of clothing. Well built technical apparel that isn't going to break the bank.
