• its wired-less. No cables from shifters to mechs but both mechs connect to batt (which has built in junction box b). I think they cant get around the AXS patent.

    I have also begun to see less of a point in Shimano now since everyone is moving to 12 speed. Now I just need to justify my hate for DOT5.1 and that fucking chain.

  • shimano is on the 12 speed train though

  • I think they cant get around the AXS patent

    Aye, I’ve been down some very long google rabbit holes on this.
    Some conflicting info on it. But the fact that 12s di2 isn’t fully wireless suggests that it is something patent related.

    I’m patiently waiting for da9300

  • Nope, the rim brake version has wired shifters too.
    Hence the battery being 3 port. You only need 2 ports for disc brake

    Shimano cranks/ring/chain/cassette, AXS mech and shifter, Magura brakes, done.
