Hi
Is anyone aware of an off the shelf carbon di2 disc braked road bike ?
Cheers
Not Di2 but the campag equivalent
Nice use of "Only" before the £10k price tag! Lovely bike though 🙂
"di2 disc brakes"?
As in servo actuated brakes? Cos' I don't think they're available... Yet.
Or do you mean a Di2 Drivetrain with mechanical discs?
cookeaa - I assume the later, as you say, the former isn't yet available.
Nice Dura Ace chainset on that Campag bike.
Bargain !! I did ask for that though lol
Was hoping to spend no more than 5k really (where is canyon when you need them hey)
Di2 disc would be awesome if it was available but as its not I'm just looking at what options exist
Few options if mechanical discs are OK, not many if you want hydraulic end-to-end
Hydraulic would certainly be preferable, do you have any suggestions ?
For your budget, how about a Specialized Roubaix Disc and then upgrade the shifters and mechs to Ultegra UI2, a Hope hydraulic converter, and some nicer wheels while you're at it?
Or maybe a Salsa Colossal Ti frame and build it the way you want?
If Ultegra is OK then there's the Rose one:

There's def a few others out there but will be a lot more being released as the year goes on, especially when Shimano release their updated mechanical disc brakes and maybe full hydraulic next year if the prototype hydraulic Di2 levers make it into production by then.

That Rose has got the 515s which are updated over the old 505s. Or are there more in the pipline?

DI2 hydro levers aren't out yet, so you'd be looking at a converter. Not aware of anyone speccing them off the shelf (possibly Volagi?).
Ultegra UI2, a Hope hydraulic converter, and some nicer wheels while you're at it?
DI2 stands for Digitial Integrated Intelligence, the "D" is nothing to do with Dura Ace, so it's still called DI2, or UDI2 if you prefer, but not UI2, dunno why that bothers me.
