I am considering changing my current Elite Direto for either of the above.
My question is whether the 2T offers a tangible difference for £250 more over the Neo 2, is anybody able to offer their thoughts or experience please?

    I got my 2T nearly 2 years ago and as I remember it the main reasons were split power readings (recovering from injury) and improved magnets. Mostly the magnets.
    DCRainmaker is probably yet best source of info.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    What issue or downside are you seeing with the direto? Thinking of replacing my wheel-on with a direct drive.

    There are only two.
    It is very sensitive to pedal stroke, which means it can be difficult to hold power as accurately as I would like and it is not as quick as the Neo is to react to changes in power using ERG mode, otherwise it's great.
    I have had it for nearly four years and have been very pleased with it, when I bought it I didn't want to spend £1000+ however I'm now in a position where money isn't really a consideration and I'd like the best available.
    I believe the new Direto XR is very good just not as good as the Neo!
