dura ace electronic wins cross race!


As posted on weight weenies and cyclingnews.com - Neils Albert won the Erpe-Mere race in Belgium last Sunday using electronic shifters (and a normal 7800 chainset). And yes it was dry and sunny and not muddy.

I can feel a chorus of "can't see that catching on up 'ere" coming on from grizzled Northern crossers reeling after Sunday's mudbath. Then again I may be as mistaken as the erstwhile record executive who turned the Beatles down for being commercially unviable.........
