After couple of weeks of using, I can tell you some words about Leap's On-bar Blip mount shifters.
https://leapcomponents.com/product/on-bar-blip-mount/
During the first ride, the placement of the shifters felt a bit uncomfortable, however, during the 2nd ride felt it better. But I was not so satisfied with it, to be honest. I almost removed it from the bike...
But! When I went out 3rd time for doing some KOM hunting, everything has been changed suddenly.
Somehow I got used to it and also during all-outs, turned out this kind of shifter placement cannot be more convenient and logical. You know, when all the O2 stuff goes to your legs instead of your brain, you cannot really focus on the small things.
I absolutely love it, I'm a big fan of these blip based shifters now.
Pros:
+ same fast and crispy shifts like in case of the AXS controller
+ after configuring it up, you can remove your bulky AXS controller and put aside
+ like on a road eTap or AXS, left shifter shifts upwards, right one downwards
(however, you can configure it in the opposite way as well (-: )
+ great aesthetics and clean looking handlebar
+ superlight -
24 grams only!
Cons:
- no big force required for pressing the buttons, therefore you can do accidental shifts
- installing the Leap grips may require some patience, even by using the install tool they provided
- no idea about the REAL lifetime of the (non-replaceable) batteries / no info about the blips' battery status
(AXS app might help, but we'll see)
I hope this info will be useful to you.
