  1. Why are they starting with a complete road group and not just chains and
    cassettes??

    I noticed this recently ... was glad to see them in the 10s biz ... but why
    the group?? Don't get me wrong I am happy to see this ... i love anything
    other than Shimano ... having Chorus on my road bike;-) Just wondering why
    they did not do this with the 9s groups??

    I'm a product of the La. public school system, but even I know that the
    difference between 2x9 and 2x10 is two. How do you get to "could also
    be three"?

    WHAT?! On a road bike?? Shirley, you're joking. Nobody would dare show his
    face with a triple on his road bike, would they?

    Which proves Ewoud's point. Indurain doesn't dare show his face in RBR
    after having used a triple. The big wuss.

    Thank you.

  14. Is a compact group with 50/34 and a 13/29 worth of this newsgroup? Just
    checking before I downgrade my record group to a record CT and large
    cassette.
