Did you find this interesting? What else would you like us to look into? Let us know in the comments 👇
Ответитьcan you explain price of the battery ~150-200 eur?? (for 2 cells, worth few quid and housing....)
Ответитьif the battery is dead , can gears be change manually?
ОтветитьI suppose electronic control was inevitable and will become ubiquitous and I'd love to try it, but the thought of a bicycle that won't work without a battery just seems wrong.
ОтветитьWhy does Shimano use wires instead of wireless communication?
ОтветитьWhat about longevity of electronic derailleurs vs mechanical derailleurs? How many miles would electronic derailleur last until needing to be replaced ?
ОтветитьWhat's the point of having everything cabled when you could have all components connected wirelessly?
ОтветитьI'm still using friction shifters
ОтветитьAre cables ever used in professional races anymore? Thanks.
ОтветитьYOU STILL HAVE NOT SHOWN HOW THE SHIFTING ACTUALLY WORKS FROM THE LEVERS !!! DO THEY WORK THE SAME AS MECHANICAL OR NOT ??
ОтветитьLove that Alex goes all the way down to bin explaining how di2 works lol
ОтветитьThis is great, Alex. Very interesting and well done.
ОтветитьGlobal Cycling Network written in binary.. nice 👍 The heavy lifting of coding, though, is done in hexadecimal.. which is even cooler than binary!
Ответитьreal men use mechanical
ОтветитьAre there di2 compatible systems for a tri bike that only has shifters on the end of the aero bar?
ОтветитьNot quite true the connector on the end of the gearbox shifter is a diffrent size
ОтветитьQuick install
ОтветитьJoe Brandon wants to shut your bike ride down if your ESG score isn't high enough. Can't shift if you can't charge your battery. These are a horrible idea.
ОтветитьI thought this was done wireless
ОтветитьAlways prefer mechanical group sets; a fan of Campagnolo mechanical sets
Ответитьthere are 2 different sizes of DI2 connectors.
ОтветитьI thought it was wireless. Wow. So many wires. How fucking pointless
ОтветитьCan this tow a child carriage?
ОтветитьTwo bike in the garage. One with, and one without Di2. Both are very nice to ride with...
ОтветитьHello, i have a simplon E-Bike from 2017 with e8000 DU and XT di2, is it possible to do Shift automatically (Like s1 or s2 Mode), or is it only an electric shifter but not Automatic Mode?
ОтветитьFor a wireless system I sure see a lot of wires .
ОтветитьI’m considering an upgrade of my current Ultegra 11spd. Mech to the 11 spd di2 but thinking about the wireless 12spd seems like such a fun aspect.
ОтветитьOmg just make it complicated to bump up the price ffs
ОтветитьWho else is watching this now 105 Di2 has been announced?
ОтветитьWhy would I use electric if I still do have a cable?
ОтветитьI don't race bikes any more, spend all my days on computers and/or fixing electronics. Was a bit suspicious of electronic gear shift at first, but honestly I think it's superb, have seen the electronics inside the housings (trust me it's very hard to get at for good reason) and I would be confident in saying that what Shimano has invented is near infallible. It's great that the connectors are all interchangable and wires are 2 core (these are maybe the only bits that might get broken easily and bieng this way are easy to fix and replace) Thankyou for such a great series of videos on Di2
ОтветитьHow long does the battery last for? Maybe not ideal for touring/adventure bikes
ОтветитьJust out of curiosity; does anyone from the GCN staff still use mechanical shifting?
ОтветитьI absolutely hate this trend to electronic shifting
ОтветитьWhat would happen if the battery failed mid-ride, I guess it’d mean riding home in the same gear I was in when it failed?
ОтветитьI though it is bluetooth, would have made the world easier and cross compatible
ОтветитьAs the prices come down I am more likely to adapt to the Di2 system on my bike from a mechanical Ultegra system. I like the idea that the derailleurs won't get out of adjustment due to cables getting old and make shifting a little more secure. It is not a good time when my chain falls off the big ring when I shift up on the front derailleur, which happens no matter how much adjusting I do to it.
ОтветитьCan the battery still fit if you use a dropper post?
ОтветитьToo many dang wires. Why not wireless like SRAM?
ОтветитьSram is much better and simpler
Ответитьhi, will a di2 10 speed rear derailleur work on a 11 speed cassette if the shifters are changed to 11 speed ones? thanks heaps !
ОтветитьUm that don’t look wireless to me
Ответитьsram etap is wireless, so much more easy to install and setup and doesn't require any wire.
ОтветитьHow about the upcoming wireless Di2 or SRAM etap? I am still not sure how well wireless will do, I mean I have concerns on loss of signals or interference. If you are out in a group ride and everyone has wireless, will there be any issue?
ОтветитьIm a new rider and I did not know that the bicycle I ordered online comes with an electric shifter. Having seen this video made me aware how it works. Thank you! I still have not decided wether I should stick to electronic shifter or go back to manual. I will update my post in 25 days after I rode my Grizl enough.
Ответитьi have always wondered which cables goes where and which junction box needs to be installed. Thanks for confirming that it doesn’t matter. To simplify things even further the Di2 system and its wirings are just like a municipal water distribution and its piping.
ОтветитьIf I dont have arthrritis in my hand, what for I need this ?
