[mathias720]

any updates from users. i am really thinking of trying this on my DA 11-speed

I've had this installed since February (Bike is on the trainer - I'm in Camada)
No leaks
Can provide more feedback from outdoor rides here in the next month

Is BH59 hose safe? I could replace front hose to whatever is needed but rear hose goes through a hambini bottom bracket I'm not willing to reinstall it unless is extremely necessary.

I used Magura hoses - they're a different diameter than shimano hoses. All accounts I've read was to use the Magura hoses so I stuck with that - your mileage may vary going the shimano route.

BH90 is the current spec for most things Shimano but won't make much difference. Curious why you couldn't use an internal routing kit tool to pull a new hose through the frame? I was able to do this with my Colnago with a BBInfinite bottom bracket but ended up having to press it out anyway when I tugged just a tad too hard on a Di2 cable.

BH59 with ultegra r8000 levers and non series Shimano flat mount calipers that shouldn't be compatible for around 40k km without any issues other than the infamous wandering bite point and lazy pistons, especially at the back. When pads rub touching the levers repeatedly without braking stops the rubbing. This also happened with the oem levers.

Hambini bottom bracket has been a nice way not to go for an unneeded 12 speed upgrade. It needs to be removed to replace the di2 battery.

I don't feel confortable with dealing around the bottom bracket area, bike shop didn't enjoy the installation of the BB.

Luckily if things go wrong rear brake is the "safe" brake to fail.

Mine with magura hoses and 9270 levers, but i have read about bh90 barb may result in possible leakage.
