[Closed] Psychic Mike Predicts...... (11 Speed Content)

I'm sure campag already do 11 speed for road bikes.

This is SRAM 11 speed Mountain Bike kit

though it will never take off till it's on discount in Germany

Interesting, I've not even considered switching to 10 speed.

I certainly think the prices will be firmly esconsed in the 'hilarious' category, can't see much take up at first.

You forgot...
1 thread where the poster trys to be witty about people reactions to a new product, completely missing the fact they are about a month late with the news... 😆

Many threads about the compatibility of a 10-speed mech with 11 speed shifters and cassette.

Yeah the pricing will be ridiculous so I doubt many here will be early adopters. I reckon the cassette alone will be £300...

Apparently the answer is yes although the mech looks like the best bit IMO, I'd be tempted if they did an X9 mech and I'd not just switched to shimano.

You DO only need one gear :0p

I reckon the cassette alone will be £300...

Well an XX one retails for £325, this isn't gonna be cheaper!

I would have been happy with a wide range 8 speed set up.

I think we all know that the only true All-Mountain bike is now going to be a 1x11 fat tyred 650b.

At least 10 years ago, I saw the Shimano 14-speed cassette drawings - sprockets like tinfoil 🙂

i think the OP has slightly underestimated the strength of singlespeeders on here
