Thanks for the contribution.
It would be nice to see something newer than a quoted post from Sept.

Dude. If you have to ask that, then maybe you forgot what forum you're posting on.
I ran gripshift 8 speed for many years and loved the simplicity, reliability and LOW WEIGHT.
My bad, I did in fact lose sight of the WW aspect.
Gripshift (aka "gripsh*t") may be simple and light but I hated the actual shifting movement. Especially the front derailleur shift is such an awkward move if you are standing up.
As to winning the world championships, I suppose that you'd run out and buy a certain chain or cable because the sponsored rider used such product?

I've bought the SEC gripshift for Sram XX. I suspect them to perform shit, so gripshifts for XX is a most welcome product! I hope they end up around 100-130 gms though, they must come with a weight benefit over the triggers...
