Glossary, to better understand the terms used

Cassette: the set of rear cogs (10, 11, 12, or even 13 depending on the group). Watch for compatibility with the wheel’s freehub body: you will find the HG pattern for Shimano/SRAM, the Campagnolo-specific ED pattern, and special patterns for cassettes starting at 10 teeth.
Compact crankset: a crankset with a chainring bolt-circle diameter of usually 110 mm, allowing 34-tooth chainrings to be fitted. On a so-called “traditional” crankset, you cannot go below 38 or 39 teeth.
Disc brakes: modeled on mountain bike brakes, braking is done through a caliper, pads and a rotor located at the center of the wheel. More powerful and more stable in varying conditions than rim-brake pads. Also heavier. Hydraulic braking uses an oil circuit instead of cables. More powerful and smoother than cable braking, this system also requires rigorous maintenance.
Direct Mount: mounting the caliper arms directly onto the frame, for weight savings and aerodynamics.
BB30: an oversized bottom bracket axle, 30 mm in diameter, with the bearings pressed directly into the frame. Advantage: lighter and stiffer than a traditional threaded axle. Check frame compatibility.
Threaded axle: a traditional bottom bracket system, where the bearing cup screws into the frame. Check frame compatibility and thread pitch (“Italian” or BSC standards).
GXP: SRAM threaded bottom bracket system.
SRAM DUB: new SRAM bottom bracket system, designed to fit frames with a 68 or 73 mm wide bottom bracket shell.
Di2: Shimano technology for electronic shifting levers and derailleurs.
Shadow: Shimano derailleur design for the new Dura-Ace and Ultegra groupsets, compact, with adjustable chain tension.
EPS: Campagnolo technology for electronic shifting levers and derailleurs.
Ergopower: Campagnolo technology for handlebar controls with integrated shifting.
Double Tap: SRAM shifting technology, with a lever that shifts up or down the cogs depending on how it is pushed.
eTap: SRAM technology for electronic shifting levers and derailleurs (wireless).
AXS: SRAM drivetrain system for the new Red and Force groupsets, using smaller chainring and cassette combinations, with 12 speeds.
1x: SRAM or Rotor technology for certain groupsets with a single chainring to simplify the drivetrain.
Wifli: large-cage SRAM rear derailleur, for cassettes with large cogs.
HRD: SRAM hydraulic braking system.

Weights at a Glance

Weights are given for guidance and correspond to the lightest versions of the groupsets. They also depend on options (cogs, chainrings). For groupsets with cable-operated derailleurs and rim brakes, weights include brake and derailleur cables (100 + 90 g). For disc groupsets, weights include brake hoses and fluid where it was possible to find them. For electronic groupsets, weights include wires where necessary.
Prices shown are manufacturers’ suggested retail prices. Watch out for promotional prices on some websites, which may come with mandatory options (cogs and crank length).
