Default Wireless Electric Shifting

Bring it on

It won't be long before somebody figures out how to make a pocket
size emitter to change a target rider's gear ratios on the fly.

Two buttons should be enough. One "Up" for changing into the
sprinting gear at a critical stage on a steep climb and one "Down"
for dumpng the ****** into the Crawler in the sprint.

A deluxe model could probably replicate the action for a whole
squad,


Encoding the wireless gear changers is already done so that one rider shifting doesn't interfere with another in the peloton. These codes can be so long that there would be no way of breaking them down to use against a rider.
