I can't believe how awesome bikes are these days, walking into an LBS is almost like walking into a factory building F1 cars...the technology and quality of them all is just breathtaking is it not??!!

It's a suicide shifter. If you make your brake lines a little longer than normal you can do bar spins but not with a shifter on the bars.

I have no idea as to what you would use that for?

Do you do much tricksy stuff? If you were handy with electronics you could rig up a Di2 mech to work remotely. now that would be clever!

The shifter is going on my bars but im not running a front brake. That Di2 is intresting why don't they have a wheel speed sensor and crank speed/strain sensor then you could have auto shifting?
