• Any thoughts on here as to whether it is worthwhile / necessary getting di2 specific bars & stem?

    Cockpit is the last thing I have to buy for my build and I am fitting the ultegra di2 hydraulic set. I can see there are some bars offered up as di2 specific and one or two stems (the Pro Vibe one in particular) that accept the junction box, but is it worth getting them or will normal finishing kit be fine?

    Will also need a junction box mount of some kind, weirdly I don't have one.

    not worth while if you're happy with junction box hanging in standard spot below stem/garmin. Did your set not come with the stem clip and some small zip ties?
    Any normal bar whether it has cable routing or not will do the job just fine.

  • Thanks - thought that might be the case. I don't have the stem clip and cable ties, though, as it was bought second hand.

    I wasn't sure if the internal mounted junction box was making life more difficult anyway, as don't I need access to the box to charge the battery (I've got the seatpost mounted one)?
