Thanks! Yep, large price difference, but I have accepted the potential cost and now debating the merits of mechanical vs electronic. I currently have nothing to charge on my bike aside from my lights, and I like that...but also wonder what I am missing out on with the newer AXS stuff.
I find I am way more sensitive to shifting quality on my drop bar bike as compared with my mtbs. Perfectly content with older gen shimano on my chromag, but somehow find myself anticipating the new Red AXS release for the Stig (!?) Those new Red shifters paired with GX T-type is my weirdo dream right now.
