Sure doesn't hurt. I hit some very wet patches today and had to spin 34/28 at 100+ to keep from bogging down.

I finally caved in and bought a 25 meter roll of Campagnolo shift housing (CG-CS025RD) for $5/meter versus the $15/meter I was spending 660mm at a time.

Barfly Road 4 Max mount for the new Di2 build.

I emailed Tate Labs to ask a question and the owner of the company called me today to personally answer my question over the phone. I didn't quite understand his description of how how the Di2/EPS mount attached and so he took the photo below and emailed it to me.

This will be my third Barfly mount. I can't say enough about this company and their outstanding products.
