Shimano Electronic Time Trial Bits

Some new Shimano electronic parts were spotted at the Tour. Sighting Shimano electronic shifter is not surprising given that Shimano has been working on its electronic parts for years now. What does make these shifters interesting, however, is that they were electronic time trial shifters.


The electronic shifters that were seen at the Tour allowed for the rider to shift gears while riding in the aero bars or on the bullhorns as there are shift buttons at both locations.
