Wondering why SRAM Red eTap instead of the Shimano Dura-Ace Di2... but reading a few comparison test the only thing I could find was ease of initial setup for the SRAM over the Shimano due to wireless (SRAM) versus wired Shimano). And around 65-95 grams difference depending on what review I read. Better battery life on Shimano and more customization capabilities.

Was the decision based on looks between the two units?
Anyone can read reviews and it's pretty clear you use Shimano. Some people prefer SRAM...is it that hard to believe?
