Battery operated gears and seatpost via wifi....??Tech encroaches further, you could call a "normal" bike with this a "semi-e-bike" lol....

the prices are just stupid £700 for a dropper post and 1k plus for a rear mech ? for the total system its £2650, you can get a full sus ebike for that

That's what I paid for mine lol....(with a £700 drivetrain!)

More to go wrong. I'm sure it's delightful, but it's taken me 3 years just to get to grips with servicing and sorting the Canyon and Haibike out.

This is cheaper, but funnily enough none lest at the moment (£300)

the vyron has a big delay from pressing the button till the post goes up and down.

also lots of them have failed and had to be replaced under warranty so put me right off them.

i cant run a stealth post either

£355 for a fkn button? it is for a road bike but it is compatible with the mtb stuff and imo it will be about the same price if not more for the mtb version.

so £700 for the dropper post on its own with one of those makes sense where all the money is going, on a fkn wifi button.!

Buy one, reverse engineer the protocol and implement it in Arduino, return it and save yourself £350 if you think it's just a wireless button.
