GOOD HUNT

All of this technology is cool, but it may have gotten you wondering, “Do I, or cycling in general, really need all of these gadgets?” My honest answer is, of course, not a simple yes or no. The truth is I got along fine with my bicycle when shifting was taken care of by conventional cables and Strava hadn’t even been invented yet. That being said, when I finally began riding Di2, it greatly enhanced my riding experience. Di2 made my rides much more fun because I spent less time worrying about trimming my front derailleur or wondering why my gears started skipping. The ability to manage all of these functions from my Di2 cockpit adds an additional user-friendly aspect to my ride and puts me in complete control, which I find exhilarating and I think many other riders will as well.
