Japanese bicycle component manufacturer Shimano continues to drive innovation. The company was the first (at least successfully) to introduce electronic shifting for bicycles, with its high-end Dura Ace groupo. Now the company could be shifting gears again, as it looks to introduce an 11 speed version.
Photos surfaced this week on a Japanese website of what appears to be the Dura Ace 9000 groupo, and it will be interesting to see if any of the pros will take advantage of the extra gear this season – or it will even be allowed by the UCI?
