shifting
Should you buy a chain brand other than Shimano?
Recently I did a report on Shimano v Sramcassette, and my conclusion was that with out a doubt most riders out there would be best off sticking with Shimano cassettes. Price, shifting, and in most cases weight are all in favour of Shimano's line of cassettes.
But unlike with cassettes, there are a number of Asian companies competing in the chain market. Yes Sram sell road and MTB chains, but even thier sponsored pros tend to fit other brands so I'm not even going to worry about them!
Is Sram a threat to Shimano's dominance?
Shimano has grown to a cycling market colossus since entering the market in the 1970s. In the 90s it was virtually the only option for a complete Mountain Bike group set, and did battle with Campagnolo for the road bike segment. So despite Sram so aggressively chasing Shimano's market share why is Shimano still so dominant?
Hydraulic shifting- the future of shifting??
Will the recently released hydraulic shifting from Acros be the future of shifting? Well I sure think so. Probably the most innovative improvement in bike technology is some time.
