It can add up quick. I built it in 2013. It still has mechanical shifting. Now it's all wireless electronic.

No more cables, easy to set up and it works flawlessly. Not too expensive anymore. It came out about 5 years ago.

Actually sounds pretty cool.

12 speed instead of 10 speed. Sequential or compensating shifting.

No cables connected to the derailleurs... just looks wrong.

I like my mechanical shifting but it's got internal cable routing. It can be a bitch to change cables.

For a road bike, yea. For a MT bike. I wouldn't want it. When you're miles from no where in the deep sticks. I can fix a cable. That, I don't think so.

If you break a cable on the rear derailleur, you can rig it up to stay in one gear if you're mechanically inclined. If not, it defaults to the highest gear (smallest cog). If the battery goes dead on the rear derailleur on electronic shifting, you can use the battery from the front derailleur which doesn't get as much use as the rear and should be pretty much fully charged. That is, if you charged the batteries before you left.
