Interesting and quite believable, I would also question whether published weights include the oil. To be honest 200g isn't enough of a difference for me to leap the £800 gap from Alfine 11 to Rohloff. Comparing the two I find the proven Rohloff track record the only selling point for me, whereas the Alfine 11:-
approx 1/3 of the price
better gear spread for me - as I don't plan any laden touring the extra low gears on the Rohloff seem superflous. In the general riding range there's nothing to choose between the two. The Rohloff would be better if the gear steps were varied but, as it's essentially a 2x7 setup I'm not sure how that could be achieved. The Alfine on a 39/20 setup gives a range of 28 to 115 gear inches, good enough for all the types of riding I do.
shifter options - the Alfine has trigger shifting and will probably get bar end and possibly STI style. Rohloff have no plans, according to them, to explore any new shifter options.
frame and disc fitting on the alfine seem better, or less finicky
weight - it's significantly lighter than the I-9 and I use that with no issues so that's good enough for me
Like most my big concern will be reliability and nothing we can do about that until time reveals the truth.
