- I dont think I will have carbon rims anytime soon. Its lmnot like I am against them, I just don't feel the need as my 1 disc brake bike is my gravel bike so the quality aluminum rims on that will be fine for years.

- I don't see electronic shifting hitting my bikes soon. Only 1 can support it my gravel bike, and the 2x11 wide range drivetrain works perfectly as is. Again, no motivation.


I do wonder what I will do in a handful of years because I love my steel frames, but I also love my Ultegra level shifting. Once what I have is nearing the end of life...do I go to Microshift or some hack Amazon ltwoo style brand that is still making 11sp mechanical for rim brakes?
