well if the elctronics are smart enough to shift at the needed time, and to choose the exactly needed gear, the top 2 gears will be meaningless
it's a abttle of electronics, you can ahve 4 gears with idiotic electronics, and find yourself in 4th only 1% of the time, and an 8 gear box with samrt head that will use the full spectrum exactly when needed |
