What are you all even on about? What does this have to do with R7100? LOL.

Fun, tho'... if you like a debate.
.
I wonder if it'd be a logical move if r7150 is wireless only with no di2 ports at all.
This is in contrast to Ultegra /DA that can run either wired or wireless and they have ports for remote shifters, I assume r7150 to only work in wireless mode with no port for remote shifters either.
That way, r7150 is logically a lower spec tier than r8150. Yet they don't have to artificially inflate a lot of weight like Rival Axs. They could be the same weight as r8150 but is shorter and has less features.
Applying this idea elsewhere,
Other than skip fins on brake pads and brake rotor, I don't really see anything that can be removed from fd and rd to reduce feature and save cost at the same time in this manner though. Are there any physical parts Shimano can skip ?

Ok interesting debate, many information I get
So, can I run smaller chainring on shimano 12sp?
If yes what crankset I can use?

I've asked this question but gotten no responses. I have a 9200 group on order and I plan to try it with a GRX (48/31) crank. I believe the new 12-speed has already been used with smaller chainrings for CX and it works. But the CX chainrings have small tooth gap difference. I'm unsure if the 12-speed FD can manage to shift the GRX's 17 tooth gap difference. Once I test it out I will report my findings...Vincentsmoox wrote: ↑Tue May 24, 2022 7:25 pmOk interesting debate, many information I get

I could think of a couple additional items they could use to differentiate the 105.Hexsense wrote: ↑Tue May 24, 2022 8:31 amI wonder if it'd be a logical move if r7150 is wireless only with no di2 ports at all.

- delete the buttons on the top of the hoods. The 8150 and 9250 both have them. The 8050 lacks them.
- use bigger (presumably cheaper) motors for the FD. The 8050/815 have substantially bigger motors than those in the 9150.
You sure 8050 doesn't have top button?
My 8070 (di2 hydraulic) has it.
I know 6870 doesn't have one. But 8070 does.
Anyway, yeah. They could remove that button and simplify the hood and shifter design.
You're correct. It's the older 6870 that lacks them. My bad.

That is Interesting theory, it should be work but dont know If they can perfectly shifting or not Since grx chainring have 17t difference instead 16t on Shimano road.pdlpsher1 wrote:I've asked this question but gotten no responses.

But the problem is grx crank is weight More than ultegra, maybe theres other lighter option with 16T or less difference?

it depends on the heart rate curve as well. just imagine spinning 120rpm while churing out only 70watts. work load is very little but just by spinning at such high cadence, the heart rate wont be in zone 2, some may even be in zone 4.SystemShock wrote: ↑Mon May 23, 2022 1:21 pmThing is, 100 RPM just isn't that fast. A *lot* of ppl shoot for 90 RPM as their 'standard' comfortable cadence, and the max in the efficient range (which is kinda what I think you're alluding to) is about 120-130 RPM for most.Lina wrote: ↑Mon May 23, 2022 1:08 pmMany people can spin quite fast, if it's just going for maximum cadence, or peak maximum power.SystemShock wrote: ↑Mon May 23, 2022 12:33 pmYou really can't spin faster than 100 RPM?
Condolences.
.
But if you're actually trying to put down consistent power while spinning super fast it becomes a whole lotta harder. And having to go above your self selected cadence is a lot more taxing than being able to use your self selected cadence.
.
But, to just plain not be able to go above 100 RPM? Ouch.
.
Anyway, enough off topic responses.
Some say pour 10ml water out of your bottle to save that last bit of the weight. Sorry, i go one step further, i tend to the rider off my bikes.

Finally a more affordable Di2 disc grouppo! Hope the package includes a stock power meter.
