Hey guys,

I know its a long shot but I am wondering if anyone has had to widen the holes on a Zipp Vuka Sprint bar in order to accomodate internal wire routing for Di2 satelite shifter. I guess I need to know whether is feasible as this bar is not meant to be taped fully and I had to tape mine as the satelite shifter wire does not fit. I now know a guy that has the tools to manipulate carbon but i dont want to have them taken out if it can not be done for one reason or another. Thanks

We did it on a couple of our bikes and to date no equipment failure. Have not tried mounting
a satelite shifter yet but I think it can be done if we remove the exit plug below the bar.
