Crack and Fail. Unreliable, over engineered heaps of shit. No joke these things go for $8- $9K I kid you not. And people actually spend their hard earned on them believing that they will have a happier mountain bike experience. Talk about a fool and his money!!!!

A similar system was banned in WSBK where instead of a screwdriver turned by hand a stepper motor(like what drives a CNC machine) was connected to the clickers. Was banned very quickly and even in it's infancy proved worthwhile. That system has a great sample rate and would probably work a treat.
