As seen on the presentation website and making the yuan-euro conversion... and except for errors

prices; eRX (carbon parts)  4.999 Yuan=  678€
           eR9 (no carbon parts) 3.999 Yuan= 542€

Surely someone must make one. 

I'll be getting a gravel bike that comes with an ACR headset and SMR stem stock.   I'll be changing the stem to a Redshift one.   Whilst I could file the 2 locator pins off the ACR to SMR adapter that will be on the bike, it will leave a gaping hole at the front of the spacer stack.

Surely someone has made an ACR spacer to normal stem semi-integrated spacer?  I just can't find it.

Ritchey also has proper steering uppers

Definitely SRAM like.
They have the same pairing buttons behind the paddle.
There is a battery on the front derailleur.
It looks the rear derailleur can be charged too, but the battery looks to be hidden behind in the pictures, or very small.

I think having read somewhere SRAM had a patent on having the batteries on the derailleurs, making them the only one 100% wireless. Forcing Shimano to have a wire between the derailleurs, or there is another reason?

Shimano also patents changes with battery... Sram can patent "its" battery, "its" clamping and similar things, but I don't see why other brands can't use removable batteries... Shimano has its satellite buttons ( patented ones are supposed) did not Sram take out his Blips?
