I would fucking love integrated screens in my handlebars for all my data.
There was this one company that showed them around on a few ocassions but i dont know if its real.
Imagine a fully integrated Ultegra Di2 with a digital widescreen cockpit in your aerobars. God i think it is only a matter of time but i want it now.

Electric actuated brakes would be cool too. Imagine only some kind of pressure sensor in your hoods that coresponds with your electric ABS brakes.
We could finally get rid of those stupid break levers.

it already has, idk why but every chinky ebike kit uses 26" wheels and every new production one uses even smaller

a few companies tried to make some but it turned out people just want to mount their phone directly because niggers steal the handlebar mounted computers and it's more sensible to just mount your phone, use a dogshit app, and take the phone with you when you lock up the bike. ebikes tend to come with chinky monochrome displays that show battery health and ride/motor metrics.
