I like the indexing system. Genuinely different. A little torn on the looks, but it's growing on me.
Doesn't really matter, though, as I can't see it working out well for external routing, which all my bikes have.

Sram really changed things with Etap. If i go electronic Etap/ wireless is the only option. People already want to get rid of the wires and cables. Customers coming in seeking out to ditch cables and DA Di2. Now you throw in hydraulic lines, what to be different? No thanks, to late to the game rotor.
This group was way off my radar until I saw those vids of it in action. Looks promising!

€2500 without crankset, that is very steep i would say!
That would probably be without a BB to i would guess.
So adding just a 3D+ crankset and chainrings to this along with a BB would bring us over €3000!!
For a road/gravel bike i would love this (apart from the expense).
If i could i would swap my UL Di2 for UNO (not taking cost in to account).
For road only i also think Etap come off as the winner for the masses.
But i do like the hydraulics better than electronic.
Etap look better though!
I wonder when it's actually available!?

I am interested as I am a fan of rotor products, my power meter is still perfect after several years. But they don't seem to ever get discounted that heavily, I don't know if this is a rotor policy but unless this comes down in price I won't get it.
