Took my new-to-me ‘21 diverge elite e5 for a short test ride around the neighborhood with the kiddo… 🤯
From reading around I really wasn’t expecting such a drastic change in shift feeling going from Claris to GRX4xx. Even though it’s the base GRX, wow, it felt like clicking a button vs pulling a lever compared to my base e5. Maybe it was just in my head 🙂 It makes me wonder if it’s time to pull the trigger on some carbon wheels…
I knew the braking would be better, and it didn’t disappoint.
I spent $500 on my base e5, sold it for what I paid, and managed to snag this one for $700….I am over the moon right now.
Happy riding everybody!
