Dangler wrangling

So probably not at all unexpectedly, GRX 12 speed dangler works with 11 speed GRX shifters. Hence you can bump your 1x range from a 46 max to a 51 if you get a 12 speed dangler and 11 speed cassette. Apparently you can also whack an XT cage on the GRX 11 speed body to get into a 51 as well.

All explained here.

PLP reckon MS Sword brifters shifts Shimano Cues dangler. Useful if you are in the cable brakes camp.

Thanks for that!


Wrangling this dangler. It’s huge but pretty light. Very rigid and shifts super fast. This thing could actually be competitive if it lasts…

It’s like an oversized novelty dangler.

Good range. The 9 speed ones look very srammy.

Looking at the Cues 9 speed shifter with Booth (Youtube shifter nerd up above), we realized that it has an 11 speed shifting plate with the last two gears locked out. It looks like dremelling off a plastic nubbin will turn it into an 11s shifter.

LOL. Amazing.

I just received one of the new full cartridge bearing Cues hubs. Will report more later but initial impressions are very good.

Doping with EPO: Tired.
Doping with RF Jamming: Wired.

Full paper here, with a pretty detailed breakdown of Shimano’s wireless protocol. The ANT+ stuff kinda seems like not a big deal. It’s not supposed to be end-to-end encrypted.

Ooh! It’s not the canbus protocol, but that’s a nice crack to lever some reverse engineering out of

They huffing tailpipe for gainz now?

Good primer on it here:

Long story short is that they say they’re using it for measurement purposes, but apparently rebreathing CO can lead to gains in VO2, similar to altitude training

hell yeah hook me up to a tailpipe and let’s roll some clean ass coal
