If it didn't have Hammershit I would say it's perfect.
I am absolutely NOT trying to start an argument; what is it about them that you don't like? More clearance, two gears, instant shifting etc etc. What's not to like?

+1 For that kind of bike I'd get Hammersmidt for sure.

They work great until they stop working. When that happens, you have a serious problem.

Couldn't you say that about anything? Also, the hammerschmidt isn't light and when I took it apart to figure out how it works I could see that it is built bombproof.
I'm not a believer in using Warranty claims as an excuse for a product that doesnt last. Locally, people have loved their hammershmidts but they dont seem to be to reliable compared to a front derraileur. That being said, locally, we represent such a tiny % of the market so its not like our OP matters much.
They just seem like a novelty toy, good idea thats well executed without the philosophy that it should last a long time, seems to be the tradition with lots of recent SRAM product thats been marketed as something completely new and innovative, which it is, but seems to be more as advertisement than creating a legitimate long lasting product.
