Welcome back!
This is the next generation of Shimano bicycles shifters. Fully electronicaly controlled shifting. Its not going to be cheap. Also thats the testing of the time trial/triathlon set (Picture). The normal shifters have been tested during the last two years in the European pelotons. Remote shift buttons for TT/Triathlon aero bars are supposed to follow sometime next year. I haven’t seen any prices but will assume at least a $500 premium over the standard mechanical grouppo. All other components will come from the standard dura-ace 7900 series.

Well, that IS a lot of money. A LOT! I guess these gadgets can be expensive.
