SRAM Apex AXS groupset review: is this low-end groupset a new high for electronic shifting?

Right shifter of the SRAM Apex AXS groupset.

Trickle-down technology is a beautiful thing, and it may have taken SRAM eight years to get here but this season, the American component manufacturer (finally) introduced a wireless electronic groupset at the entry level.

For those unfamiliar with SRAM's product hierarchy, 'Red' identifies the top-tier products followed by 'Force'. Then there's 'Rival' and 'Apex' as the entry-level tiers.
