Dear Weenies,

Do you have suggestions for a steel or titanium frame wich is ready for Di2?

I know Baum Ristretto...

I've search throught the forum, but cant find anything..

Cheers,

If you are in the US, I believe Carl Strong will do either material Di2 ready for no upcharge.

If you are referencing the Baum, then you are looking at higher end custom options.
Pretty much any custom steel or ti builder worth his/her salt will be able to create something that is Di2 specfic.

Well, i'm located in the Netherlands.

The thing is, i have right now a Beone Raw frame, full carbon, running with Dura Ace Di2.

So, yes i'm looking for some high end manufacter.

Just found also Blacksmith, a builder from the Netherlands.. And just curious what you guy's think and know..

Cheers

Incorrect.

All their road frames (barring the Espresso) can be made Di2 compatible.

@ T P, incorrectly interpreted...
Baum is of course custom and can do Di2...
Just about any custom builder can do Di2 specific frames, was my comment.
If he is talking Baum, then cost is really no object.

Guru Praemio (Ti) and Sidero (steel)

doesn't have to be custom. You can request it on the pre-set geometry options
