I'm talking about the road group. (as a reply to the previous post)

ultegra vs force. same price here, 500 grams difference.

It's plain obvious we are totally different type of bikers. for my cross-country/on road habits sram rocks/rules. It's proven to me over quite a lot of hours i spend every year on a bike that it's a proper quality as well.

It's not a matter of 'being fan' (push-push shifting) it's a matter of getting used to it. Principles are a lousy way to defend.

And what exactly is your point with the x-o cassette? it's not that expensive. XTR is more expensive. (over here anyway) I guess you mean the XX cassette?

I advised you on the road-group since this is superiour to the ultegra in terms of shifting, and since you mentioned weight as a factor i mentioned the group with the better weight.

Me personally, i am a fan of good products. For some parts shimano rules, and others Sram rules. Step over the fact that it's not 'your brand'
Don't follow, decide self what suits you best. I know i did, and for a fact i hate srams red front deraileur with titanium cage. I like the force better.

Go out, pedal and have fun, on your own way. That's what counts. The smile you put on your face when you enjoy driving it gives a better satisfaction than laughing about other people's bikes..
