My D/A and Ultegra stuff from 20 years ago is still functioning flawlessly.....no batteries to replace; no circuit boards to get funky with dirt and moisture and die (Only to find out that they no longer make the part, or charge so much for it if they do that it doesn't pay to buy it); No servos to wear out...no software to upgrade. (Why would I need all of that to accomplish the simple task of moving a chain a fraction of an inch, which a lever, spring and cable can do just fine?)

The day I go electronic, will be the day after I hire someone to pedal my bike for me!

I wonder how long this fad of electronic shifting is going to last?
