Just like Duo-Tap... they lead, not follow.
Leading would imply they got it done first. Still, it would have been easy to just replicate the mechanical systems so they got a bit creative. It took me a while to get used to double tap but now I can switch between shimano or sram without any difficulties. I wonder if the new method will cause any angst for people (me)
Almost $3,000 for a group though, yikes.
