The Fantasy League is an actual fantasy this year - you’ll just have to play it in your mind.

Some people definitely want video, and the title of this article makes it pretty dang clear what to expect.
We have bike checks on the way with photos. This video was produced by the UCI Mountain Bike World Series, and it was interesting, so we posted it up.

Review: 1,000 Miles on SRAM's New Eagle Transmission
Shifting when you're pedaling hard, like on a steep climb, or when sprinting out of the saddle are what constitute 'shifting under load' in my book - the system is being stressed by the weight of the rider in those instances, and in the past it was best to avoid shifting in those situations.

Review: 1,000 Miles on SRAM's New Eagle Transmission
@half-man-half-scab, I think you'd find that with this new system it requires minimal adjustment once it's up and running. And if it does need a slight tweak, there's essentially an electronic barrel adjuster on the shifter - pushing the AXS button and then one of the paddles allows the derailleur to be moved slightly in the correct direction.

Yes, that's one of the few components that's backwards compatible.

Review: 1,000 Miles on SRAM's New Eagle Transmission
To everyone griping, you do realize I've been thrashing around on this drivetrain for the last 6 months? It hasn't had an easy life, and has withstood everything I've subjected it to. Can it be broken? Sure, everything can be broken. But I'm convinced there are merits to the new design, and so far it's proven its worth out on the trail.
