Sure :-) but...
according to the shimano compatibility chart CUES look like the least compatible group of all. It appears to only play nice with other CUES and linkglide components and looking through the EU Shimano webpage, it decidedly looks like mtb style components, - side swing FDs but no band on or braze on, flat bar shifters but no drop bar shifter, post mount brakes but no flat mount, etc. Maybe I'm just dense, but I don't get what it is supposed to solve or "end". Its just one more line of incompatible products that may solve very specific issues that might as well have been remedied by expanding other lines, mtb or road or both.
