you're right, didn't look at the reach. That doesn't look like it will work with the long reach. 440mm width + (104x2)208mm = 648, which is more than the 2 parts of the Y-cable combined.
@dancing james I used a 350mm for my front mech, which is a pretty perfect fit.
{But with those huge bars (wide and long reach) I don't think the 1200mm from EW-RS910 to SM-JC41 will fit.. I don't even think the biggest size (1400mm) will fit.. }Smart, use a 400mm from the bar end junction to your wireless unit and a 1200mm to the SM-JC41.BTW, didn't know you could link up shifters with the extra ports on them. You sure that works?

Pretty sure the reach on aeronova is 110mm or 130mm? The junction point definitely isn't far enough along to be inside the bar, instead you can nestle it in the bar opening. Also it takes some time to wire up the bar. I used a cable outer with a kink at the tip to force my way around all the corners pulling string with it, then taped the ewires to string and pull back through.
Along with fitting your brake cable outers it's a good 2-4hrs work depending on your luck, worth it in the end.
Finally, the bars do bend, if you tape your cable down too tight trying to put the Y plastic as far into the bar as you can, it will probably disconnect from the shifter (in my experience)
