DI2 6870/7970 shifter compatibility
Quote | Reply
 
Can I use 7970 shifters (10spd DA) on a 6870 (11spd Ul) system and vice versa ?

I have 10speed 7970 on my tri bike.

I would like to move it to my road bike and buy 6870 for the tri bike.

If they are compatible, I will buy a 6870 road bike upgrade kit and put it on my tri bike, leaving my existing 7970 shifters

I will take the road shifters from the 6870 kit and put them on my road bike with the rest of the 7970 components


thanks

No you cannot mix within the two systems. You'd have to go entirely new.

What kyle h said. The original 7970 was not compatible with anything else before they moved the the e-tube platform for the next iteration. I'm in the same boat with my 7970 on my TT bike, but will just use that on there until something fails and then replace it all.
