According to compatibilty chart, new FD-R9100/FD-R9150 is compatible with FC-9000, FC-6800, FC-5800, FC-RS500, FC-U5000-2 crankset

FD-9000/6800/5800 not compatible with FC-R9100 crankset................

FD-9000/6800/5800 may not compatible with FC-R9100 crankset, because FD R9100 could move futher to the seat tube.

Out and available here in JAPAN.
Took a test rig today, works beautifully. Not sure I like the aesthetics though ?!

caballero, is it only on bikes, only as groupset, or some separate parts also available?

Today the full groupset was available for a very limited time at Lordgun (https://www.lordgunbicycles.co.uk). They sent out an email featuring the groupset. For 30 minutes the compact groupset with 172.5mm crankarms seemed to be available (they had 3), now it shows out of stock for every options. Based on this the first batch has shipped. If any of you happen to get one I can't wait for the first hand reviews. ;)

Also as @bruno2000 pointed out in the pro thread Froome raced on the new c40 wheelset yesterday (8/23).

Where? I am in Japan too, and have not seen it in any shops, or online.

Anyone knows some (more concrete) release dates about the new Di2 stuff?

They had groupsets and individual components for sale?

Almost tempted to get one for the winter bike just because. Probably not a good idea though.

I know it's silly to ask, but there wouldn't be any issue running the R9100-P in front even if everything else was 105, right?

Of course, no one knows the price of the R9100-P yet, so I might be asking for no reason. Ha.

I heard from some one at shimano that the Di2 has been pushed back a couple of months

Has a release date even been announced other than 'early 2017'?

The main guy at the local shop here in Japan told me the mechanical was originally set for October, but is now looking like November, with Di2 also being pushed back.
