Could you please share details of how did you route the Di2 and brake cables with the Ernova?
I would like to go to a narrower bar on mine but the Di2 routing really makes life difficult as you have to go through the stem.
Thanks for any help!
I had to swap out the original bar as the drops were too short - I reached down when descending, grabbed a handful of nothing, and nearly crashed...! I had Ergonovas on my TCR so something similar (the same?) was a no-brainer.
The bike came from the factory with the Di2 cable routed into the stem through a hole in the stem clamp area and the hydraulic lines enter the plastic stem cover from either side. The Ernova did not have a drilling in the stem clamp area so that was not an option. I looked around, briefly considered getting some Pro bars with routing holes, but I since really liked the Ernova's flare... I decided to improvise a bit.
I ended up routing the Di2 cable together with the left hydraulic line. It was a tight fit entering the stem cover. I tried adding a heat shrink tube, but ended up removing it as it looked worse IMHO. I hope it doesn't look too messy.
