In this video, we break down the differences between mechanical and electronic groupsets. 

As this topic is a little grey given the different types of electronic groupsets on the market, including SRAM eTap, Campagnolo EPS, Shimano Di2 etc, for the purpose of this piece we focus on Ultegra  r8000 mechanical and Ultegra r8050 Di2 electronic.

I interview cyclists from around the Melbourne area to get different opinions/preferences and then we speak with Darcy from Hampton Cycles (who has previously raced road bikes and now builds them) about the pros and cons of mechanical vs electronic. Cables have a big say in this piece, which leads down a path of one groupset having more flexibility, reliability and even durability.
