If it's thunders ... somewhere raining. For months chasing the voice, plausible, a new Shimano Dura Ace Di2 and traditional range that will debut in 2013 with the official presentation at Eurobike 2012. This falls well in a regular program of product development, as they have already been two years since its debut. Among the possible changes in commands and a wireless link between the front and rear derailleur for the Di2 group. This solution will allow for easier assembly of the group. Other upgrades to the passage 11 speed for the traditional Di2 and Dura Ace, to pursue the new Campagnolo EPS. Again, and this will perhaps already during 2012, a new battery, smaller and lighter. It will have a reduced autonomy, enough for a day of competition, as requested by some Pro Tour teams.
