In 2011 Shimano introduced the Ultegra Di2 [18] electronic gear change set, a cheaper version of the electronic Dura-Ace system.

The Shimano 10 pitch system is incompatible with ANSI standard #40 (1/2″) e.g. chains, sprockets and so on, [ 15 ] [ 16 ] and was outlawed by the ...

This distance acts as a leverage force on the axle. Since the freehub can have its bearings near the end of the cassette (and the dropout), axle bending and breaks are far less common. Not all manufactures/models use this design. Those designs often use an axle made from oversize aluminum to compensate for the additional bending moment on the axle.
