Like the bicycle version of an automatic transmission?? Wow, I've been out of the "bike loop" apparently!
If it's something that can sense the gear needed for, say, a long uphill...and switches to that gear
for you...that's pretty cool. Although there
is a lot to be said for really knowing your bike...and knowing what gears are needed for what.
