Bossman-
New wider cassette, getting the rear derailleur to fit that new cassette, new chain? Still doesn't seem so much
-
Because di2 is crazy prices - rear di2 GRX mech, double wide ring and ultegra spider adapters, new cassette would be best solution but cost £350+
I can happily not go with the XD driver and giant chainring for the massive range as I’m just not that bothered about that side of things
I could get an adapter for the current ultegra di2 but a basic cassette, ultegra compatible chain and ring alone is £180
Along with the fact it will need a new t47 bb anyway, my current bike is post mount and the new frame is flat mount so got to fork out for new calipers (adapter won’t clear the frame) and I’m going to get the neater bar end di2 controller, wires and stuff I want to keep additional costs to a minimum.
Decided just keeping 2x means I just need the new post mount calipers and di2 controller to transplant the parts . I can always move to 1x when this cassette and chain wear out

I had a very long conversation at the bike shop today on how I can convert my new Ti frame to a 1x di2 setup with all my old road di2 parts. Turns out it’s gonna cost a shit ton so gonna stick the 2x setup and just have carbon 650b instead - any had any experience with the TRP hylex and di2 climbing shifters adaptation?
