So by next summer Shimano could be on their 3rd iteration of Di2, most likely with no backwards compatibility...

Glad to see the 55x11 gearing. I've been spinning out everything else.

because your wimpy guads will only be able to handle 54-11, while I'll be able to take on the manly 55-11 for the sprints when I drope the hamer to crush you on the MUP. You will see my 400 Watts and weep.

Descends like a rock
I wonder how many cogs we would need to drop the FD? THAT would interest me.
