I don't know.

The GRX progressive brake levers are the most interesting part of the whole lineup.

And the GRX wheels will be $420 list which isn't a bad deal at all for a 21.5 internal width Shimano wheel.

The fact that something isn't needed doesn't mean people won't want it or buy it. I'd like to get my hands on the shifters/levers.
