For those who live in the Richmond Hill area... My buddy Mike Horlick bought the Bikesports store on Yonge st on the hill. Introducing EVOLUTION CYCLES. He is a great guy who worked for Bikesports for the past 8 years and needed his space. Team Snow will from now on will be "Team Snow Evolution cycles". Good times.
Is he that older dude who works there? He was always super nice and helpful back when I was just starting out with cycling.

Yes.

Apparently all the 7900/6700 systems have bee failing miserably once they get gunked up in cross. Changing derailleur housing and routing the cables is a much bigger hassle now a.la campy than it is with old style STI routing. Buy Di2 if you want super bombproof in cross. The entire shifter + derailleur set + cabling/battery is only $2k on PBK.
