DieselnDust Posted April 9, 2019 Posted April 9, 2019 half of the complaints on this thread were typed on samsung 9 or apple whatever R20k phones.in 10 years we will all be rolling on wireless something . its like LP's - they are cool but which artist makes a career out of releasing them? tech is prevalent in every aspect of our lives, embrace it..it will trickle down to even the level of the LG phone user. typed on an overpriced (but brilliant) MacBook pro.I really like the mac book pro. Overpriced maybe but that finish and feel of the keyboard is second to none. Reminds my of a light weight xco tyre rather than a heavy clumsy am rubber
Mohs Posted April 17, 2019 Posted April 17, 2019 If you love gadgets, have a bucketload of spare cash, why are you pretentious for spending what you earned on what you want? Have you tried it, I have. Quite awesome - Would I buy one? Definitely not because it can't shift down fast enough (yet) and 32k is an obsense amount of money I don't have. But I won't judge anyone with this. Don't most of us ride on or with more than we really need? Does that make us pretentious? When I got back in MTB, 1x12 was brand new. I got it and was scoffed at. Now it's the gold standard, not for all, but for most. Besides, with this kit your bike is going to look awesome next to your SUP, golf bag, surfski, kiteboard and Q7 edit grammarhttps://www.bikehub.co.za/classifieds/357900-sram-eagle-axs-xo1/ Some of you must feel like real tits for paying full price...

splat Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Scott Genius: https://www.scott-sports.com/global/en/product/scott-genius-900-ultimate-bike Coming in at about 10 000 €, it's already high up the bike porn ladder. Now clean up those bars with AXS shifter and dropper lever, and all you have is the brake lines (and I wouldn't want those to go wireless). OK, brake line are also gone https://bikerumor.com/2019/06/19/magura-mci-next-level-cockpit-integration-with-master-cylinder-inside-the-bar/

BaGearA Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 what I don’t like about those is that your brake lever position and rotation looks to be fixedI think the slot will give you A few degrees , but very very little
BaGearA Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Just rotate the bars.then sweep and rise figures go out the window
Grease_Monkey Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 what I don’t like about those is that your brake lever position and rotation looks to be fixedI'm of the opinion that you never buy the first iteration of a product because there will always be some issues (such as the one you mentioned) and you pay a premium. Wait for version 3 or 4 and all of those things will be sorted.
Danger Dassie Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 then sweep and rise figures go out the window For sure, although it also depends on the bars. Generally there's always a bit of rotation on a bar.
BaGearA Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 For sure, although it also depends on the bars. Generally there's always a bit of rotation on a bar.for dead flat bars it won't matter but most bars have slight rise and sweep angles , some prefer a middle setting , some like it to sweep towards them and people like me like to roll the bar that it almost sweeps up and that's what will have to get lost here , also how will cutting your bars shorter work ?
DieselnDust Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 don't crash those bars. Some valid points in the comments about crashing and levers rotating or braking the master cylinder. I like brakes but I hate it when it breaks
