I'm sure it will take time to sort out all the details, but I'm really looking forward to seeing the 3 new Junction A options. There should be two that make it easy to hide the box on TT bikes.
I didn't see anyone mention the reference on the Shimano DA TT and Tri Shifter page: "Hydro ST has same ergonomics as ST-R9160" Is this a misprint or could it be they are actually offering a hydro TT brake/shifter combo? And if they do offer this will it work for the Cervelo Magura users?
The new extension shifters look like they will require reworking existing Tri extension set ups to deal with the loss of shifter length. Though these no length added shifters might help those dealing with UCI measurement limits.
Edit: Found more details here: Shimano DA9100 Looks like there will be hydro TT/Tri shifter/brake units! Still not sure what they will have for buttons since the promo photos don't show details. The description indicates only one button per shifter, but the way it is phrased is off.
It also looks like there really are just two new Junction A options to go with the existing two options - an internal or bar Junction with 2 ports and an external with 3 ports. There is also a 2 port extension junction (B?) option and they are offering E-Tube Y-cables. The Y-cables will really help with aerobar wiring options. I've used Junction B's and 150mm E-Tube wires to avoid using a 5-Port Junction A on my bars. The Y-Cables will be cleaner:)
