only way if you can match some hydro rim brake calipers, but not sure if that would work.

Hilarious aye, I know. Wishful thinking for my commuter, 1x rim brake electronic and reasonable price, would be ideal, keep on dreaming I guess.

Would love to see some cassette ranges 11-46 like what Rotor is doing.

sram rival cassette 10-33T/10-36T €132

SRAM S-700 calipers actually would work, but it really wouldn’t be worth the money spent.

How much heavier than Force are we looking at?

This shop has the cassettes already listet with pictures:
https://www.biketiresdirect.com/product ... d-cassette Rubber bands attached from the factory for at least the five or six smallest cogs, it seems. It says available as 10-30 and 10-36, though.

My thoughts/impressions:

I'm glad they've corrected the hoods to look more like shimano, from a purely aesthetic point of view.

To echo prior comments in the thread, adding the power meter at that price (appears $349 usd) is massive. Game changer

Shimano now under serious pressure imo. They've already lost most of the mid tier OEM market, this will only further solidfy SRAM's position. 105 di2 when?

This design might prevent the rubber hoods from getting baggy and loose. Nice.

There's good reason why the hoods are smaller.
Can tell why at 4pm

If one counts the teeth in the image 10–30T seems to be correct. Reducing the number of SKUs also saves on cost, and I would assume the Rival rear derailleur only comes in a "max 36T" version. Largest cog looks to be made of steel which probably accounts for whatever weight penalty is has against Force.
