So, how many of you have seen this new drivetrain? Anyone there at Sea Otter who tried it?
For me, I don't understand why they made it to require a derailed system. What the heck? Do they not
know that SRAM has been killing it with their no derailed system? Do they not understand that riders like
this? I'm a bit let down with this introduction, I was expecting much more from Shimano, especially for XTR
group. Love the brakes, but as far as holding out any longer for their offering I'll go SRAM XX1. I have a
feeling Shimano is going to take a big PR hit on this one. THey'll be nailed to the wall on this bad deal.
It seems like this derailed system is here because the
chainring looks like a regular chainring, the teeth don't seem to be what SRAM did to innovate teeth that
will keep the chain from coming off. Thoughts anyone???
