Is it really fair to say that electronic groupsets have reached parity with mechanical ones in terms of reliability and maintenance, or are we just drinking the Kool-Aid of convenience and ignoring the potential long-term drawbacks of relying on complex electronics? Ive seen countless reviews and testimonials praising the seamless shifting and customization options of electronic groupsets, but how many of these riders have actually put in the kind of mileage and wear-and-tear that would truly test the mettle of these systems? Are we prioritizing flash over function, or has the technology truly advanced to the point where electronic groupsets can be trusted to perform flawlessly over the long haul?
