After a bunch of reading this thread and ordering and delays I have finally finished (well mostly) my Shiv Ui2 project. It was not that difficult once I figured out what i wanted to do and use for parts and such. I did run into a few issues that had to be overcome but nothing that difficult. All in all it cam out pretty clean looking and all that is left to wire up the remote switches on the bullhorns. This process will be easy as the wires to the shifter black box are already in place and just need to be connected to the cat eye buttons I have.
Have only done the around the block so far but the shifting is crisp and quick. The bike needs fitting as well. Them stem/spacers are going to get changed and removed as it is too short and too high for now.
Here are the pics.
Here are the custom made shifters. I bought a carbon fiber tube cut and drilled holes for waterproof switches and put the back box inside carbon tube which then slid over the aero extension.
pretty clean cockpit...
and finally the battery lives inside the seat post. This was one of the more difficult parts. I had to cut and grind down battery mount so it would fit down the seat tube. This took a while to get just small enough but once it was it slide right in and the battery is fixed in the post.
A special thanks to Locutus who was a great help with the start of this thread and by patiently answering a number of private messages I sent him.
Now I need to get out and ride!!!
