SHIMANO Dura Ace CN-7901 Chain Review

SHIMANO Dura Ace CN-7901 Chain

  • The redesigned outer plate reduces chain suck
  • Redesigned asymmetric outer and inner plates have better contact with gear teeth and smother shifting and higher efficiency pedaling
  • The hollow pin and perforated plates are both lightweight and strong
  • 116 links

With older Dura-Ace chains, we thought that Shimano had reached the limit of refinement for the lowly bicycle chain. After all, what more is there to accomplish than to ensure that it shifts crisply and runs quietly? To our surprise, this Shimano Dura-Ace CN-7901 Chain is better. This improvement comes in a number of ways.First of all, the 7901 Chain is over 11g lighter than its predecessor. This is thanks to perforated inner and outer plates. Both chains share the same hollow pins, and it uses the same tried-and-true connector pin that Shimano has relied on for so long. The second improvement is a slight tweak to the shaping of the individual inner and outer plates. Shimano was the first company to build an asymmetrical chain. The point of it all was to decrease the workload to get the chain to climb to the next biggest cog in the back or bigger chainring in the front. Their efforts also produced a chain that does this faster. So lighter and faster shifting, with less potential for chainsuck — we like that.With the asymmetrical chain design, it is of utmost importance to install the chain as instructed. This way, the beveling and overall shape of each inner and outer link can perform as designed. These new plate shapes mesh together with the Dura-Ace chainrings and cassette with unprecedented precision — reducing mechanical drag (which, behind aero drag, is the greatest enemy to your efficiency.) The net effect is smoother and quieter shifting, whether the shift is on a casual endurance ride in December, or in a 1200 watt herky-jerky maelstrom coming out of the final corner of a crit.The Shimano Dura-Ace CN-7901 Chain is compatible with the Shimano Dura-Ace FC-7900 and FC-7950 cranksets and Shimano Dura-Ace FD-7900 front derailleur. According to Shimano it is not compatible with the Dura-Ace 7800 series crankset and front derailleur.

Redshift Dual-Position Seatpost Aluminum (27.2mm x 350mm) Review

Redshift Dual-Position Seatpost Aluminum (27.2mm x 350mm)

    This fits your .
  • Make sure this fits by entering your model number.
  • Switch between road and aero positions on the fly. Adapt to conditions you encounter during your ride. Climb comfortably in the road position and hammer the flats in the aero position.
  • The forward seatpost position replicates the steeper seat tube angle of a tri bike, opening your hip angle and letting you ride comfortably and powerfully in the aero position.
  • The patent-pending linkage design maintains constant saddle-to-pedal distance in both positions, ensuring proper leg extension in road and aero.
  • Part of the Switch Aero System

The patent-pending Redshift Sports Dual-Position Seatpost lets you switch your saddle on-the-fly between a normal road position and an aero position that’s similar to the setup of a tri bike. The steeper effective seat tube angle opens up your hip angle and maintains proper leg extension, letting you ride more comfortably and efficiently in the aero position. Riding a long flat into a headwind? Shift the saddle forward and drop into a wind-cheating aero position. Grinding up a steep climb? Shift the saddle backward and spin comfortably in the road position.

The seatpost is designed to maintain the same pedal-to-saddle length in both positions, ensuring proper leg extension in the road and aero riding positions. Also, since some riders prefer more forward saddle tilt while riding in an aero position, the seatpost includes an additional adjustment that tilts the saddle forward by up to five degrees when you move from the road to the aero position. The mechanism is completely stable in both positions – a spring-loaded stop holds it securely in place until you decide to change positions.

Together with the Redshift Sports Quick-Release Aerobars (sold separately), the Dual-Position Seatpost gives you a truly integrated aero position, without compromising your normal road setup.

The seatpost is constructed from aerospace grade 6061-T6 aluminum alloy. The post is 27.2 mm in diameter by 350 mm in length. Shims (sold separately) can be used to adapt the seatpost to bikes with larger seatpost diameters. The seatpost accepts saddles with standard round 7 mm saddle rails. The seatpost weighs 400 g including all hardware.

Wolf Tooth Components Light Action ReMote LA Review

Wolf Tooth Components Light Action ReMote LA

  • Material: [lever] j6061-T6 aluminum, [axle] Delrin
  • Recommended Use: mountain bike
  • Manufacturer Warranty: 1 year

Seeing that many droppers have finicky actuation that’s much too difficult to initiate, the savvy riders at Wolftooth Components designed the Light Action ReMote for lighter, smoother throws of the dropper lever. This light and smooth actuation is possible thanks to a longer lever arm, which creates more leverage for less force required before your dropper starts to lower and raise in height. It’s compatible with all cable-actuated dropper posts on the market, allowing you to scrap the stock remote for this beautiful lever. Wolf Tooth recommends measuring the distance from the pivot center to the end of your current dropper lever before settling on this remote. If this distance is greater than 52-millimeters, the Light Action is best, where shorter distances between pivot center and lever end are suited for Wolf Tooth’s Standard Remote. It’s available in a myriad of clamp mounting options for keeping your cockpit tidy. UpFront cable fixing makes for quick and easy installation, due to the dropper cable being attached at the lever. Another benefit, it has a solid-mounted barrel adjuster for making on-the-fly adjustments.

SRAM Apex Rear Derailleur Review

SRAM Apex Rear Derailleur

  • Speeds Mid 32T cage RD offer wider gearing than triple (11-32T with 5034T crankset)
  • Exact Actuation makes 10 speeds shifting smooth and quiet
  • Set up is faster and durability is increaed with our patented Actuation ratio
  • Apex Derailleur is both lightweight and very durable
  • Weight 190g – Mid 32T rear

Along with the wide-ratio cassette options, the Apex Rear Derailleur is a big part of SRAM’s WiFli 2 x 10 speed road shifting system. It stands for Wider, Faster, Lighter. The premise is… why ride with the extra complexity and weight of a triple crank, when you’ll have redundant gear ratios across the chainrings anyway? Sure, the folks at SRAM know that many of us want to have a mountain goat style granny gear and something to crank out at high speed as well. That’s the reason for WiFli. A wide-ratio cassette coupled to a double crank can, in reality, get you all the gear range you’ll need to conquer both mountain passes and city limit sprints with equal aplomb.The SRAM Apex Rear Derailleur is designed to accommodate the 11-32t 10-speed Apex PG-1050 Cassette. Of course, it will work with all other SRAM 10-speed cassettes as well. It works in harmony with SRAM’s Exact Actuation DoubleTap Shifters to make crisp, flawless shifts time and again. The body of the derailleur is aluminum alloy, with the cage plates being made of aluminum for the outer and durable steel for the inner. The jockey wheels are supported on bearings for smooth function and long life. It is available in two cage length configurations — short (handles up to 28t cassette) and mid (up to 32t cassette).Exact Actuation delivers precise 3mm shifts with each click for clean, reliable shifting Aluminum inner cage for added durability Aluminum outer cage for reduced weight and increased stiffness Available in medium and short cages for varying gear ratios
