Personally, I cannot see myself replacing my 2X for this Classified rear hub. It is not worth the money. It isn't just the 2300 Euros for the kit, it would also require different spacing and therefore, a whole new frame. In 50 years, I have never had a problem with front derailleurs. But this Classified gear does allows a great deal more efficiency than a 2X or 1X. It looks like a great device, it just won't fit any of my bikes or any that I would likely buy in the near future.
