Being a big boy the one thing that I don't like about 1x11 gearing is that I usually have to give up the high end I like when riding places where I need an extra gear or two to handle the climbs. So I'm really interested in the 1x12 options coming out this summer. The one thing that might keep me from being an early adopter for an Eagle drivetrain is if there will be an eTap version coming soon. Any rumors floating out there about SRAM bringing their electronic shifting to their MTB line?

i am currently on eagle and LOVE it. I am desparate for etap also as I do a few long distance events 6hrs + and the clutch in the derailleur is so strong that it gets a bit hard to shift lower when super tired. And that's what I believe is the biggest issue with etap on 1x mtb. overcoming the clutch and getting enough torque out of a little battery. But surely its in srams bigger plans. I do love Di2, but still not sold on mtb as its a tangible while and I think pure wireless is way to go.
