So, funny enough, with the recent explosion in bike stuff prices, I’ve started to investigate the lower end groups, and found that they’re actually really good. SRAM Apex mechanical is seriously a fantastic group. Apex hydraulic sucks because is SRAM and all SRAM hydraulics suck, but that doesn’t really have anything to do with the price of the groupset. It’s really tough to tell an Apex group from a Force group.

So yeah, maybe this logic is right.
