Looks like near production version of Shimano's new Dura Ace 11 speed mechanical groupset has shown itself at the Japan Pro Tour.

Da9000crank
Dura Ace Crankset.

Asymetric crank arm alignment probably designed to save weight and add strength to the areas of the crank needing support.

Da9000brake
Dura Ace Brake

Looks to still be Dual Pivot, Hollow Forged, reasonable width clearance but s very close on this speific bike to height clearance.

Da9000derailleur
Rear Derailleur.

Clean cable routing, longer cage? Possibly Carbon?

Da9000cassette
11 speed Cassette

Definitely 11 there, spacing appears generous, current chain may be compatable. Cassette block does look wider though.

Da9000shifter
Dura Ace Shifter

Anatomic lever design, not to sure if I like the 2 tone hood colours though.

 

What do you think?
