Mechanical for TTs because of UCI position regulations. Extra inch because they measure mechanical and di2 levers from different points.
He's off them on the road bike. As I said, the Sky riders that used them still use em on the TT bike since they're never really in the small ring in a TT and thus the shifting doesn't matter. They also tend to like them, as Phinney likes q-rings on his tt rig, because they're so far forward that it minimizes the need to pull over the top of the stroke.

I think he's just playing mind games with everyone, because people make such a fuzz about his gear.

We also saw him in Assos and in s-works shoes. I don't know it by experience, but front der. With no trimming in sram, and Di2 shifting is not so optimal for oval rings, specially with osymmetrics and the new q-rings with the oval shape more exagerated to really make a difference.

Better that people are arguing about what rings he's using than whether he's using a new variant of EPO.

I think there is a new rule proposed, but not in force yet.
It'll shorten things up
