I dig it that shimano isn't that much behind sram in some cases. They should react faster.
on the other thread, I've allowed myself to be convinced that 10sp *could* be better. But I agree with Cant Climb, I would rather see it 1x10 than 3x10. For the riding I do around here anyways. I think that with a 11-36 cogset and a 32 front ring, I wouldn't need a granny. And I haven't used a large ring in over a decade.... no front derailleur? sweet.
I love the name. Does that kind of marketing work on anyone?Dyna-Sys is Shimano's name for the optimized 10 speed component group
now that should stay in the roadies groupos.I thought their next new product would be electronic XTR.
The think I like about 3x10 is that only one end of my AM bike is outdated nowThe 3X10 is certainly a head-scratcher.
It never ends because 11 speed will come,after that 12 speed, then 13 speed blah blah blah.Where does it end????
link no worky... add shimz!Shimano's official response...

I think I dig 2x10 more...just makes more sense to me.
I am just really disappointed that there isn't a 4 ring front option yet.It never ends because 11 speed will come,after that 12 speed, then 13 speed blah blah blah.
Yes Shimano hasn't but 4 chainrings has been arround for years.I am just really disappointed that there isn't a 4 ring front option yet.![]()
i thought there already was an 11-36 nine speed shimano cassette... "29 er specific" as I recall.I'll probably rock the 11-36 cassette on my trail bike w/ a 35t ring...currently have an 11-32 and could use the extra gears at this point, but I don't want to go to a front derailleur quite yet.
Who can be the first with more than 40 speeds?!?!?Yes Shimano hasn't but 4 chainrings has been arround for years.

Well, you know what they say, "you learn something new everyday". Never seen that before. I am digging the reflector on the pedalYes Shimano hasn't but 4 chainrings has been arround for years.
That's a tandem. Touring tandems need a huge range of gears.Well, you know what they say, "you learn something new everyday". Never seen that before. I am digging the reflector on the pedal
What is going on w/that crank arm? Looks like there is a custom piece mounted to allow for different pedal placements? Also, a secondary drive train? I am guessing this is a tandem bike.....so, four rings really isn't/hasn't been a standard for Mt. Bikes, right?
Same exact thing for me. I recently switched to 1 ring up front on my trail bike and love it. I think a 32 tooth ring up front with an 11-36 in back would be just right.Yep, that is what I am waiting on as well. As soon as there is a good lightweight, halfway affordable 11-36t cassette, then I am switching.
80% of my riding is on my trailbike, and right now I am running 1x9 with a 34t front with an 11-34t cassette. Its made me stronger pushing that gearing up long climbs, but I would be faster spinning with a couple of more gears. I have no desire to ever go back to multiple rings up front.
I'm right there with you. I have a 33t with E.13 XCX and 11-34 cassette on my trail bike and it certainly has made me a stronger rider but there have been a few times I wish I had 1 more gear so I could sit and spin rather than sh!tting my lungs out.Yep, that is what I am waiting on as well.

I agree. When I said I would embrace 10 speed I was talking about Sram's 10s.I think they missed the boat personally. SRAM made 10spd viable by cutting the granny ring and offering a larger cassette - i.e precise double front shifting and a gear spread that actually makes sense. This doesn't really make any sense to me, you still have to put up with the sh*ttyness of a triple. They could have just made a 9spd 36T cassette and saved themselves the trouble. 3x10 barely exists in the road market it sucks to bad, why would they push it for MTBing?
