Internally routing or Hiding Di2

Which quick couplers did you use? I looked into this briefly, but could not find any before I booked my build.

I used Zeno Speedlink Q-connector: https://zenocycleparts.com/collections/q-connector-bicycle-hydraulic-quick-coupler

I ordered them by emailing to service@zeno.tw since ordering online was near to impossible at the time, but their webshop seems fine now.

Thanks for the feedback.
I might have to go with those tires despite the lack of "robustness".
Or maybe one of the Gravelkings, this years limited edition color (Astral Blue) looks very similar. :-)

Yeah, I've ordered an SK set of Gravelkings in Astral blue for an off-road/rough road wheelset. The colour is close, but like the name suggests a lot bluer.

Have you mounted those tires yet? Do you have a picture?
I'd be really interested to see the color irl.

Not yet! I'll take a picture this weekend next to my current tyres. I'll send a PM instead of ruining this thread with tyre stuff.

Edit: here it is

I was chasing one of my industrial hydraulics suppliers for connectors but they could not find anything suitable. This looks way better! thx!

New Chris King Aeroset for 44mm headtubes has been released. Aesthetically it's marmite but could be an interesting option for internal routing on older frames, you are tidied into using the ENVE stem though...

Used the x-night version with a d steerer on a titanium frame and works perfectly. Seem to be out of stock now, but this could be useful for a custom build. Takes standard headsets, etc.

Sounds interesting, any pictures?

Much prefer it over an acr style. Allows you to pretty much convert any bike frame with internal routing to fully hidden
