Much of the appeal of this group is the silent hub. Problem is, it's chained to the rest of the group. Micro Spline implies the XTR cassette. The 11S and 12S models use the same spacing, which is different than current 11S. I assume they didn't adopt SRAM's 12S spacing, so that means buying the XTR shifter and derailleur as well. The whole thing gets mega-expensive very fast.
How'd you feel about the hub engagement? It's akin to roughly 50 POE, right?
