• Does anyone have any faulty/broken di2 cables, including ones with a broken connector? I know that the connectors themselves are in high demand.

    Its interesting to see that noone has tried to make di2 plugs except maybe this guy on ebay selling these for 45 quids.
    But even he warns against them getting wet easily. I feel like once you get the inside right, its just the matter of tolerance + maybe an o ring on the outside. So...anyone has a broken one that I can tear apart? :)

  • A cheap source of Di2 connectors can be an obsolete EW-67A Junction As (for external batteries). I got one for £6 a year or two back, although prices on eBay seem pretty mixed nowadays, probably because a lot of them have gone in the bin.

    Di2 connectors are actually completely standard MCX mini coax connectors used on some portable RF equipment. But Shimano use the female connector for the Di2 plug, which is the opposite of commonly available MCX cables.

  • I have a snapped cable… happy to bung in an envelope for you. Let me know.
