I'll be happy to post a pic of my shattered right brifter later today.....
Looks like I can get an Ultegra 10 spd Di2 kit for less than a grand (full drivetrain, less the crank and cassette). The actual components aren't that bad, it is the damn battery and charger where they kill you. Over 25% of the cost is in those pieces!!
Just say "NO!" to WCP!!!!

So your S2 had to take the fall so you could have new toys. Man, that is LOW :-)

We're totally believing that the bike fell off.
We totally believe the house across town burned down.
The evidence is irrefutable so post the pics if you want.
The house was vacant more than two years, the owners were upside down a couple hundred G's, and there was an accelerant in the garage… just saying'

The flaw in your position is that I have no reason to make a story up for your guys.....you guys
get it
. I would just say straight up "yeah, I'm hookin' myself up." Hell, I'd probably ask for story ideas that sound better than me dumping off the roof!!

Side note - Zipp HB arrived today. Sooooo sweet.
Ordering the Ultegra stuff from Wheel & Sprocket. Then I need the internal mount kit from Specialized, but their systems are down until Tuesday. So I am probably at least 10 days out before I get this together.

Just ordered up the Ultegra Di2 stuff. Also needed the internal battery mount for the Venge, but Specialized was shut down since last Friday to update their systems, so had to wait until today.
Hopefully will get it all put together by next week, latest. Hopefully.
In the meantime, the group ride tonight will be old school.....steel Serotta w/ DT friction shifters!!
Just say "NO!" to WCP!!!!
