They may be expected to introduce a road version based around an 11-36 11 speed.
It will not do very well, though.
Sram has a romantic approach to engineering matters and that is not good.
When I buy sram components it is a given that I will have someone else's design messes to clean up.
That is fine. I still like them.

xx1 is cool.
but, no road shifters, that was the personal deal-breaker.
Also, chain cogs begin a rather rapid drop-off of efficiency below 11t
is neat stuff though.
