Not that you asked, but the Archer wireless shifting product does a lot to facilitate experimenting with your drivetrain. You like the BOX 9 stuff? No need to spring for the whole package, just get the cassette, chain, and chainring. (you know, the entire package except for the derailer and shifter...it sounded better in my head) You can program the Archer unit to run a 9-speed cassette in like two seconds. Want to go back to 10 or 11 speeds? Again, no need to buy a new derailer and shifter, just make sure your chain and chainring will work with whatever cluster you've got back there and you're good to go.
