Sram Red etap

Hi,

A local bike shop is selling at discount a Sram Red etap 11v.
New models are 12v.
I tried finding all the past Sram Red etap release to know how old it could be. Did not find any archives.
Do anyone knows?

Also, do you know if it would be compatible with the Sram mobile app to configure it?

Thank you!
Merry Christmas!

I'd pass on this unless the deal is smoking hot, as in 50% off minimum.
I don't foresee SRAM having both 11spd and 12spd groups in existence for long, and once SRAM has stopped producing the 11spd group, you won't have much where to go for spare parts, not even on the ebay since they never sold much 11spd Etap like Di2 did. If you can't replace dead batteries, then you have a brick.

If only the 12spd had a better looking crank. Well, I probably still wouldn't buy it at the going price, but maybe it would be more aesthetically pleasing. I'm loving my 11spd eTap. What is the discount?
