Fairwheels recently posted an article about synchro shifting and how it might be done on road setups in the future...

Question
We are using mid-compact 52-36 chainrings with the Ultegra 11-speed mid cage derailleur and the 11x32 cassette. We are quite happy with this gearing on our bike which is a lightweight carbon road tandem. On the steepest climbs around our Boulder, Colorado home we are working pretty hard to spin up, but are able to spin. The only challenge is that the internal battery needed to be updated to the latest firmware to work with the internal battery. We were using DA before "upgrading" to the Ultegra derailleur.

It's a set of Lightning Tandem cranks. Lightning Carbon Cranks They work well but are very expensive. We had some creaking but then I've been using a product called Tefgel on the center bolt and the creaking is gone.

The XTR Di2 triple on road brake/shifter does work. See post under "gravel tandem project" here: https://www.bikeforums.net/tandem-cyc...l#post18324470
