I was talking to a guy with an $8K bike the other day and he was proud of the fact that he could calibrate his shifters with his phone.
On one hand if it’s automatic it might be nice, but on the other hand I’d rather just have a separate tool that does that so I can share it with friends and we can all have easy shifter calibration. But also I’d dread someone being able to hack my shifters or being unable to shift when I forget to plug it in. But on the other hand my bike has probably cost me like $200-250 over the three years I’ve had it so I’m definitely not the target audience
