    My big fear for this is that its going to get hit by Shimano and SRAM patents and disappear from the market. Shimano holds lots of auto-trimming patents and SRAM has patents around batteries on wireless derailleurs (hence lots of wireless groupsets having wires connecting a battery pack to the derailleurs) - both features this groupset sports.

  • @becyk_du_quebec

    Does adjusting the FD to shift better mess up the auto trim? For di2 the FD will shift correctly and then adjust to the trimmed position, I wonder if EDS does the same or if it just goes directly to the trimmed position (which could explain the bad shifting).

    I really like that they use the same logic as Shimano on shifting the gears. Altough Sram is fully wireless but using the left lever to go one way and the right lever to go another way on the cassette and push both levers simultaneously to change gears on the front was always an illogic idea from Sram. Love this groupset. Seriously started to think to get one.

    • @einundsiebenziger5488
      @einundsiebenziger5488 Před 11 dny
