Here I go again..that 'stupid' magnet strap means the battery power lasts a LONG time..as opposed to the others, that need charging much more often...

Don't you close apps on your phone when not using to lengthen battery life?

lol... you know that you don't need to close apps on a phone to save battery right? The apps hibernate and don't really waste any battery unless they are used. fyi, closing background apps actually wastes more battery.

just sayin.

Only if that paper is an SRAM press release (or paid-for reviews in bike publications). See the previous discussions on the AXS group on why the new gearing is actually a step backward in many ways.

Any press release should be taken with a grain of salt.

Though a gear inch calculator tells me that AXS has some ratio concepts that finally give a nod to those who would prefer numbers in the sub compact range on a complete high end group.
