Bike biz people...Why is ETap being blown out?
Like a third off for a complete drivetrain group.
Is it because they want to blow out the inventory to make room for 12 speed? Or? Thank you all in advance! Steve

You nailed it Steve.
Better to fill a vacuum than to add schmutz to a clogged hose.

Its now time to get etap Really interested to see what they do with the new one. Hopefully smaller battery in the FD so you can fit bigger tires is my main wish.

Cycling Tips talked about that. Huang said it's the same battery but maybe they've re-positioned it for clearance.

It's the bike trade and a race to the bottom. Everyone want's to cut their on throat and make the least amout of money New product, best discount it by 60%, I know it's not even available for 8mths but if I get my pre-orders in I'll make 3% ****tards the lot of them!!!

This reminds me of hollywood in recent years. Are these the best ideas they've got? Adding one more gear?

More than half the complaints here about 1x (and even 2X for some triple hangers on) are about jumps in between. Adding a gear is part of that solution. |

I am betting they will change a few more things. Everyone know that front derailleur function can improve with ETAP. Works great but could be better. Also speed... I bet there is more than just 1 more gear

The rear has a clutch a la the new Ultegra. The chain rings are one piece and come in new untraditional ratios. There are several articles and a thread on here. The journo who rode it said that the fd is better but SRAM has always had room for improvement there.

Perhaps the servo gearing for the FD will change so that frame mfctrs don't have to reinforce the braze-on bracket.

that would be fantastic, clutch RD, maybe a 34T cassette and a sub compact. Sram would be taking over the 2x grave world (and they already have the 1x so the gravel world I guess)
