Bikes: 2013 Specialized S Works SL4 Keyline Red

Im all done!! Wow, let me tell you, this build was alot easier to do then your tradional mechanical build. What took me the longest was fishing the RD wire from the rear and over the BB and out the bottom hole, Maybe 30 min, had to position the bike where the front of the bike was facing down. I prelabled every wire to eliminate confusion.



I finally see RD Wire!!!



Connected



Down Tube was alot easier for the front wire connector to the Shifters





Battery Wire was simple..



FD was easy as well, may 30 seconds to fish it through.

Wiring all done... Stuffed it back in and installed the BB cable guides.



Installed the Stem, Bars and Shifters and connected front wires to the shifters.



I installed everything else and all the grommets, All done!!


FD


Had to take some photos out because photo limitations per post.

Bedtime, going to test in the morning.

Finished!!!


Here is a video, of the shifting without any adjusting to the front or rear derailleur... this is a second run. had to get someone to hold my iphone for video. It just autotuned itself, freakin amazing..also the FD senses chain rub and it auto trim by itslef! All in All Di2 is fool proof and not having to mess with fiddling with adjustments to the derailleurs is a big bonus. Maybe 3-4 hours on this build and i was taking my time, while I was watching Strikeforce on Showtime.
