Pretty sure that combo will not work, sadly.

Nope. Not compatible.

Can someone carefully explain what the sequential shifting mode actually is?

Have you read the manual?

I googled EPS sequential shifting and got nothing... thanks for the download-
The tranlation is crude... so I have a few questions if you don't mind...

Is it possible to basically move up and down the 24 speeds in a purely numerical/ratio sense?
Meaning that the left lever is not used at all and all shifting, which would be step by step, is handled by the right lever?

I suppose one would not want to include small/small and big/big in that sequence and could that be "unselected"?

Also at some point in a climbing situation, one would not want the front derailleur to be activated and I assume that
those gear combos could also be unselected?

Does anyone use this option?

The translation isn’t in idiomatic English but perfectly understandable.

The EPS syncro shift isn’t as sophisticated as Di2 but, having used both EPS & Di2 I think it’s a pointless option.

Seems to me you have a range of sprockets that you can set as the shift point, depending on which combination of chainrings & cassette you have. The left lever is not disabled, allowing you to override the front chainring choice at will.

Understandable to you perhaps...

Wish I could get an answer to my questions...

What language would you like?

https://mycampy.campagnolo.com/home#/faq

Bottom of the page you’ll find English, Italian, German, French & Spanish manuals for sequential shift.

I quickly read that document [and thanks for posting the link, ultimobici] and I think it does answer most of your questions. Not directly, but indirectly. It shows what options can be set.

It appears all your questions seem to be answered with a quick, no, since none of those options are available. I did not read it throughly.

I have yet to install my EPS12 but I am curious if this sequential shifting is as good as it appears on paper. As of yet, I have not heard anyone is happy with it. I hope to have personal experience with it someday, before 13 speed comes out.

Ulti- you obviously do not own a 12EPS gruppo... or you are just being as difficult as possible....

Where is Calnago when you need him?

So what exactly can it do?

True. I don’t. I’ve only sold them for a couple of years. How am I being difficult? It’s pretty simple to understand. You may have to use a gear calculator to suss out the best pattern to select, but unless your first language is something other than the ones Campagnolo offers the manual in I’m at a loss as to how it is that confusing.

Sadly Calnago passed away a little over a year ago.

Please keep this conversation to the correct spirit of campagnolo and not bring it down to the level of discussion like those Shimano fan boys do
