I don't see how providing a cost for one example of a wide range 8-Spd gear
system adds anything to the conversation about whether or not it is a better
system?
We can assume that if wide range, better chainline, 8-Spd systems were adopted
they would be available at all the price points currently on market?
It's no different than discussing features on the new XX1 groupo understanding
that while the price may be outlandish the best features will come to be
available at lower price points.
…
Separately:
As I said above it is really impossible to provide apples:apples pricing for
product. If it helps the SRP on EX1 is ~ 10% higher than X1. So if you know
what you would pay for X1 add ~10%.
