Road Cycling “It is by riding a bicycle that you learn the contours of a country best, since you have to sweat up the hills and coast down them. Thus you remember them as they actually are, while in a motor car only a high hill impresses you, and you have no such accurate remembrance of country you have driven through as you gain by riding a bicycle.” -- Ernest Hemingway

Installing Di2 on Caad9?

Is it possible? Easy? Will it look awful?

It is "possible" on any bike....but unless a bike is either designed for Di2, or can be drilled for it....it is going to be zip-tie city and an ugly mess.

IMHO.

Not a SRAM fan but this is a situation the wireless E-Tap makes sense. I love my Di2 but I don't think it will be a very clean install unless the frame is modified (drilled) for it.
