certain frames will only acomodate di2 'cause they lack the cable stops
i think the scott is a suspect, as is the trek.

All scott Foil models have identical frame design (with different carbon layup) and uses internal cable routing. Top of the line Foil Premium comes with Di2 and a Foil 10 comes with a mechanical Dura Ace gruppo.

Hope that clears the doubt on the Foil. Cheers!

Only the Foil Premium internal routing (openings) are suited for Di2 cables. You have to drill out the opening on mechanical frames to fit wires.

omiar know his stuff
i think that this is the case for most of the other frames listed. they might have both an electronic and a mechanichal version but not one that does both without modifications.

But not the opposite, right? a carbon frame which is not dedicated specifically for di2 or eps won't be able to take it?

Also any electronic groupset need a specific crankset or it can be using any crank like sram red, force, FSA ect...?

Thanks

The Madone 6 series works perfectly fine with both di2 and mechanical and comes with all the parts you need to go back and forth.
