It will work. Google it but Rob english has done it on couple of bikes. It's etube which means almost everything is cross compatible minus 7970 and 6870 WITH 6770 and upgraded battery.

maybe my google-fu is weak, but I have been googling it.. will look up this rob english person you speak of...

Dropped rob an email and he hasn't done it but says it should be fine as long as you swap out the junction box for the alfine and replace with junction box and derailleur...
He advocates me running alfine 8spd forever and that I'd have no need to return to a derailleur.

So has anyone actually used an alfine di2 shifter with an ultegra/dura ace rear derailleur? As it makes a difference to how this new frame is built up? Otherwise it makes it a bit of a ball ache for what I'd assumed was a simple bit of plug and play.
And if no one actually has, do we know of anyone who has, or can point me in the direction of someone who would know?
