I had some questions on how to run and hide all the brake and Di2 cables inside handlebar & frame. So here is how - not too easy, but now we did it 4 times, so kinda got the hang of it. Need to do a bit of cutting and modding - Dremel is you friends :) Cheers - Thomas, Barcelona!

And here is a detail, where you can see the "Di2 Computer" and its button through the stem hole. Also where the Front Shifter and Front Brake cable exit the handlebar.
Further - of course the small Saltstick gimmick to fill out the "old" cable hole in the frame. Its the long SaltStick - they thought this out well at A18 :)

Thought that was your "easy" button ;)

Very clean rig. Nice bike.

thank you for this. Is this possible to do even if my spacer is positioned at the upper stem. I am 5'7' in height so have to position aero bars close to seat

F'ing Baller!!!!!!

rgtayag - not sure I understand your question. Is it possible to do what? I am 5´9". Hiding the cables has nothing to do with spacers...

Thanks y´all. I can assure you its a pleasure to ride - will however also exchange the 1080 front with a 808 now the winter is coming and more wind :)

Looks great! Now if you could only hide that front brake cable :)

Nice bike, very clean. Extra points for straight extensions.

Thanks for reply. Tomorrow we will do the work. Will send pictures before and after.

Success in hiding all DI2 Cables. Thanks Thomas. It took 6 hours to finish the work. Triathletes see it and they are very curious.

Ok, I was told that as soon as you dremel or cut anything to do with the bike, your warranty is no longer valid. I was told this by my LBS here in Ontario, Canada.

This whole things looks pretty darn nice though!

Here are a couple pictures of my E-118 ... though it's not nearly as fancy as yours :)

I'm still working a bit on my position since changing to the ISM Adamo saddle (it's led to a lot of changes). I'm also working on my bar position with a wider hand stance (similar to Taylor Phinney). The photo with the set of Flo wheels is the current saddle set up with the rearward facing saddle.

Wow!! Think i like it as my much as my blue! Dont tall my blue that though.

I absolutely loved my bike until I saw this post....

My wife already hates your stinking guts!

But as I always say. You can't put a price on health! Then she says,.... "But you can on a great divorce lawyer."

Looks like I married up men. I'll ride this bike In my dreams...

Sorry Duke (and wifey) - here some more filthy bike porn from today´s little bike ride in Barcelona, Spain. Yes - I am awaiting my training wheel to arrive :)
This machine is so mean, lean and smooth as silk!

nice machine you got there señor...

*drool*

So I see you changed cranks in the meantime.
Is that Rotor or O.symetric or anything?

Mean machine... maybe someday... but for now I'll stay loyal to my trusted E-112 (and my budget)

Those are O.Symetrics.

What is the slickest/ cleanest solution to wire up a mechanical gear drive on the E-118 ?
And, I'm swapping the handle bar for a Missile Evo, should I keep the original stem or swap that also ?
