Dura Ace 9000 - ETA late 2012/early 2013

[hjb1000]

I have a KMC 11spd link on a Dura-Ace 11spd chain and it work fine.

Thanks for confirming!
This is the 11 speed link that says 'Campagnolo 11 speed only', right?

I just installed the KMC 11 speed link. Unfortunately I am in New Hampshire and a bit cold and snowy, but hope to get out tomorrow. The chain went together as the 10 speeds went together, nice and solid. I don't see any issues.

I have a KMC 11spd link on a Dura-Ace 11spd chain and it work fine.
Anyone has a complete manual for the DI2 11spd build up?

Thanks for the feedback guys.
Have you checked Shimano USA 'tech docs' for the DI2 manual?

No idea, never used the KMC links.............can you guys confirm?


@ member; "thisisatest", you were looking into the BEST product to use as a quick link. Did you reach a conclusion?

[thisisatest]

KMC never got back to me about DA9k compatibility. So I'm taking a wait-and-see approach.

Any ideas when the DA DI2 9070 groupset will be released?

I'm advised late Jan/early Feb for bikes fitted with the groupset. Loose product maybe later?

There are a couple of giants for sale here at the local giant concept store.

I confirm the use of the KMC 11spd campa missing link.

Can not find an instruction manual to build up the Dura-Ace 11spd DI2???

Do they have the new 9070 DA di2 or the mechanical 9000 gruppo?

Thanks

Sorry meant to quote the 9070 Di2 question, which it is. Someone is also paying them top $ to strip a Giant and put 9070 on his Venge this weekend.

hi there

My Trek P1 with di2 9070 is shipped and will be in my shop next week . .

Anybody had a chance to try out the new C50 clincher? Waiting on reviews before I decide on it over a Hed Jet...

i got the c50s. very good rims but a bit porky at 1780~1790. reviewed them on my blog.

Are they definitely the TCR Advanced SL0 with 11spd Dura Ace Di2 (black frame/blue highlights)??
If so, that's potentially good news for me......

EDIT 15/01/13: Talked to the shop concerned today and they are not Giant production TCR Advanced SL0's (they're built from parts by the shop) therefore my news is bad...
Seems shops are getting 9070 groupsets/parts arriving though, so those waiting for them may be in luck.

Just off a Guerciotti with 9000.

Holy cow, it is nice!


Never thought I would say that about Shimano...


Now, to test a Campag 11 wheel in it. Then the Mavic wheel on my Campag bike

I have heard repeatedly that the 9070 RD and FD are less bulky than their 7970 predecessors due to smaller motors, but I have never seen them compared.

Does anyone have any pics of them side by side so that size difference can be seen?
