Again release is September!Theguy wrote:Btw, some people expected to see the new shimano group set during the olympycs or shimano introducing it.
Well, at least is not going to happen during the first day of the olympics.
Any new bet about the date?

There was some rumors that it will be around the Vuelta a España, but to be honest it will make total sense to present it during the Olympics.
Picture of built Focus with new DA fitted was posted by a Spanish or Latin American Shop and reposted in GC Performance Story on Instagram.
Deleted both couple of hours later.

Excited about the new Dura Ace, I think I am expecting the August September launch as it seems there are some pictures being leaked of it.
I have not bought a Dura Ace groupset since 7700

so no one took a local copy of the focus 12speed bike. i am surpised the power of the BIG S to clamp down on any leaked photos so late in the dev cycle.

I'd suspect it will be the other way round. New DA weighting around the same as old Ultegra. This is what happened when Campy went to 12s.
Fuji Cross 1.5 - Shimano 105 5800 | Cinelli Superstar Disc - Record 12s | Custom steel Karamba - Ekar 13s
there were reports on this thread before that the new DA is 200g lighter than the old one.
That would bring the new Ultagra into the ball park of the old DA
Specialized SL7 - 7.1kg including Garmin mount, bottle cages and pedals
And if true it would take the new DA to a new segment in itself. kind of like "ultegra 12spd" would compete with red axs and the DA 12spd would have no match at all with a price to match of courseullmanz wrote: ↑Mon Jul 26, 2021 9:52 amthere were reports on this thread before that the new DA is 200g lighter than the old one.
