Electronic & Hydraulic Shifting (Di2, Ui2, customisations)

My DA 9070 group turned up on friday. Finally got round to having a look at some of the bits last night.
It's well nice. Am happy to see the back of campagnolo!

What is Di2 like for sevicing? Is it just fit and forget now that issues such as poor cable tension are a thing of the past?

How long does the battery last between charges? (internal)

whats it going on?

If you change wheels you may need to adjust the rear mech position - depends on how well matched the cassette position is on said wheels, otherwise once it's set up then just charge the battery when you change the chain.

Remind me how you tell if it's charged? Just hold a shifter for 5s isn't it?

5 green flashes is...?

5 green is 50% charge. So, why has the charger light gone off?

Now it's back on.. fucking erectronic.. who'd use this shit?

You, and dammit.

I think it was my laptop being shit.

What is the combined H x W x L of a Shimano Di2 battery mounted in the SM-BMR2 short battery mount?

Shimano tech docs don't seems to do sizes.

What are you trying to do? I have short mount but I am not in London atm .. will be back on Thursday; can measure.

Is there a shimano electronic for idiots guide anywhere?
Listing what you need and the different ways of doing things?

checked here? http://si.shimano.com/#

Buy everything, fit, sell what's left.

Can you use TT bar end shifters in conjunction with road brifters?

Throw it all at the bike and see what sticks yeah!?

Yes if you have 5 port junction box

Thanks.

Here you go. There are some limits on sprint shifters being Dura Ace only I think.

Got URL?

So tempting. I want to build something with a group roughly around that pricepoint. I had sort of decided on the new Shimano 105/hydraulic brake set...
