Tarmac Sl6: Downtube Di2 Junction Box
Moderator: robbosmans
I have a new S-Works Tarmac SL6 Disc Frameset coming which I'm going to build up with Di2. On my 2020 Roubaix, the Di2 Junciton box / Charging point is on the downtube.
When building it up, is it possible to have the junction box on the downtube rather than in the bar end?

There is only one internal junction box of this type. The one on the downtube of your Roubaix is just the handlebar end junction box, repurposed with a cover which sits over the top. The SL6 doesn't have the space cut out in the downtube to allow that same junction box to be located there. Unless you want to start cutting carbon its not going to happen.
Unfortunately, it looks like this feature won't come in until the next update to the Tarmac - whenever that is - which is a shame.

Or you hack the di2 bar end junction box to fit a 3d printed part. Can't see why it can't be done for anyone who's good with circuits and some 3d printing.whatleytom wrote:There is only one internal junction box of this type.

No ready made options I'm afraid.
