Recently I returned to road bike and indulged myself with a cervelo S5 VWD. When selecting the components I went for SRAM RED all the way for the weight and being so impressed on how fast the shifting happened. The shifting from shimano dura-ace seamed slow and the handle less pleasant in comparison. One watt – or 10 watts, for that matter – may not matter much to casual riders just out to enjoy the day, but that sort of 'free speed' is a huge deal to the right audience.
Wireless communication takes place between the levers and the rear derailleur, with the latter always ‘on’ and listening for signals. The main battery is claimed to last for around 1,000km of riding, while the coin cells in the levers should manage 1.5 to 2 years. Basically, if the point where the two chain ends meet is the ‘end’ of an outer link, add three links (left image).

The Di2 shift buttons are more offset than previously and are designed to be easier to differentiate from one another when you’re wearing gloves. There’s still a ‘hidden’, user-assignable button on top of each lever hood.
The front upper section above the lever pivot is fully enclosed, an aesthetic departure from previous years. Have the two chain ends meet at the large chainring, and then add four or five links, depending on the zero point shown in Shimano’s image below: R9270 is semi-wireless. The levers are wireless and powered by small coin cells, while the two derailleurs are wired directly into the central battery using new, thinner SD-300 wires. All current and previous generation derailleurs are of the Shadow RD type. This includes the 12-speed derailleurs, 11-speed MTB derailleurs, and the last generation 11-speed road rear derailleurs.
Semi-wireless Dura-Ace R9200 spells the end for Shimano’s pro-level mechanical groupsets
Perhaps the one real surprise is the freehub design. With Micro Spline already established as a standard, it seemed like a foregone conclusion that Shimano would adopt it for the road too, but it hasn’t. Part of Smith's Ultrafast formula includes running Dura-Ace chains through these ultrasonic cleaners The shifter internals are dangerously exposed to the elements: the shifter internals are dangerously exposed to the elements James Huang Shifting performance – good overall but could be better In the past, Dura-Ace has been quite narrowly focused on the needs of road racers, with hardcore gearing to match.
Ultegra RD-R8150 (12-speed), RD-R8050-GS (medium cage), RD-R8050-SS (short cage), RD-RX805 (clutch) In contrast, Dura-Ace 7800 requires a 20-degree throw for both upshifts and single downshifts, so if anything, downshift throw on 7900 has gotten longer. Perhaps Shimano were measuring 7900’s throws from a vertical line? Either way, tsk, tsk. Shifting is said to be smoother, too. R9200 cassettes use ‘Hyperglide+’, a design debuted with Shimano’s top-spec mountain bike groupset, XTR M9100. What is a "non-shadow RD", you ask? Well, all 10-speed Di2 derailleurs and the first generation 11-speed Di2 road derailleurs:Dura-Ace R9200’s 12-speed cassettes will come in two ratios of 11-30t and 11-34t initially, with an 11-28t option to follow. Have the two chain ends meet at the large chainring, and then add two or three links, depending on the zero point shown in Shimano’s image below: However, Smith has used that data to develop his own 'UltraFast' chain, which is essentially the fastest chain he's tested (Shimano's Dura-Ace CN-7901) ultrasonically cleaned and treated with a blend of paraffin wax, pure PTFE, and molybdenum sulfide lubricants. This recipe produces, Smith says, provides the lowest consistently measureable frictional losses of everything he's tested.
